The arguments of people who fear that the CORONAVIRUS vaccine will lead to other diseases and oppose vaccination are unreasonable. Metropolitan Hilarion, HEAD of the Synodal Department for External Church Relations, stated this in the program "Church and World"
On the air, the Metropolitan read out a comment from one of the viewers that the covid-19 vaccine can lead to negative consequences, including infertility, impotence, reduced life expectancy, “and most importantly, microchipping.” “If this is called prudence, then I very much doubt that a person is all right with brains. You are simply repeating the most ridiculous myths that exist about the vaccine, voicing unverified theories despite the obvious facts, ”the representative of the Russian Orthodox Church replied to this.
The facts show that people who have been vaccinated continue a normal and fulfilling life, and the consequences occur in those who, on the contrary, do not get vaccinated and fall ill, Ilarion continued. “Now several hundred people die every day, we break mortality records every day. How much more do you need to die, how much more do you need to get infected, in order to convince you that you need to be vaccinated? he turned to the audience.

At the same time, the metropolitan admitted that the drugs for coronavirus may not be perfect and some consequences for the body may occur in 30 years. “But, firstly, you may not live to see this time, and secondly, there are hundreds of vaccines,” he added (cited by Interfax).
