The Times leads with an investigation into what it describes as a “Russian disinformation campaign designed to undermine and spread fear about the Oxford University coronavirus vaccine”. The paper says pictures, memes and video clips depict the British-made vaccine as dangerous, with some suggesting it could turn people into monkeys because it uses a chimpanzee virus as a vector. The Times says it is not clear if the propaganda was directly authorised by the Kremlin but it says there is evidence some Russian officials were involved – and middlemen are now seeking to “seed” the images on social media networks around the world.
