Getting vaccinated is an objectively good thing, both for yourself and everyone around you. Period. There's no downside to it. Nobody is to "blame" for the coronavirus or pandemic, this is shit that has been warned about for years and shit that will happen again.
Wanting sanctions against Russia in direct response to the actions of Russia as a means to attempt to punish or dissuade them from further action while avoiding a military conflict is the diplomatic approach. It's unfortunate, but it's the correct and appropriate response to this kind of behavior. People don't want the Russian people to suffer, especially as many are risking their lives to go out in the streets and protest, but that's the unfortunate result of the sanctions, which are appropriate and necessary when dealing with what is essentially a rogue state.
