The social network Twitter has blocked the official account of the Russian vaccine against coronavirus Sputnik V due to a possible attempt to hack the page from the United States. Access to the account has now been restored.

"Twitter regained access to the account and explained that they were restricting access due to a possible security breach from Virginia, USA", - said in a message from the social network.

The blocking became known the day before. The Russian Direct Investment Fund tried to find out the reason, and also asked subscribers to turn to Twitter and ask the developers to return access to the vaccine account.

Now the page works as before, and all entries in it are saved. However, the social network did not immediately indicate the reason for the blocking.

We will remind that earlier Twitter blocked the account of American President Donald Trump, accusing him of violating the rules of the discussion. The company also expressed concerns that further statements by the president on the social network could provoke new unrest.
