"One interesting thing is that the Russian vaccine tests were criticized for not sharing raw data"

I'm sure that, if one searched hard enough, one could find such a criticism. However, most of the criticism centered around the fact that the vaccine was "approved" on the basis of nearly zero actual human data.



I saw only 1 open letter signed by lots of researchers which contained many problems with the experiment: the main one for me was that the results that were supposed to be from independent experiments were extremely highly correlated. The reason behind that correlation can be not enough original data (cheating) or bad processing, but the western researchers asked for the original data to find it out.
