President of the Red Crescent Society: 150,000 doses of Pfizer vaccines are supposed to be imported purchased by donors in the United States! (Tasnim news agency, December 28, 2020)
The regime’s leaders continue to cover-up the truth and lie:
The regime provides no details on when & where the vaccine is purchased. Rouhani sheds crocodile tears:“We are not prepared to let our people go through the testing period of an unreliable vaccine” & the head of the Red Crescent reveals:“The purchased vaccines are Chinese.” #Iran

Mrs. Maryam Rajavi: The delay in purchasing and importing vaccines is the continuation of the regime’s criminal policy, resulting in the death of 193,000 of our compatriots and will continue leaving more victims among the deprived and oppressed people.
Mrs. Maryam Rajavi, the President-elect of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), called the delay in purchasing and importing the COVID-19 vaccine the continuation of the regime’s criminal policy, which has so far resulted in the death of 193,000 of our compatriots due to Coronavirus.
As the regime’s foot-dragging in purchasing the vaccine has angered the public in #Iran, the regime’s leaders continue to cover-up the truth and lie. #COVID19

This policy will continue to claim more victims among the deprived and oppressed people. For months, the clerical regime has been refraining from buying the vaccine, promising to produce its own “domestic vaccine” by the “Executive Headquarters of Imam’s Directive,” which is one of Khamenei’s foundation notorious for plunder and extortion. Even if a laboratory sample is approved, the regime’s experts say mass production will need at least six months.
