Russia's Sputnik-V vaccine has already shown efficacy against coronavirus. Russia's Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Chernyshenko has also claimed that it has been proven reliable and safe. He was speaking at an online Science and Technology in Society forum on Saturday. This information has been given in a report of the Russian media Taser.
At the forum, Chernishenko said that Russian President Vladimir Putin had already spoken in a speech to the UN General Assembly about Russia's experience in the fight against the global coronavirus. "Unconditionally, the president has mentioned the supply of the Sputnik-V vaccine to various countries around the world," he said. The vaccine has already proven to be reliable, safe and effective.
Chernishenko hopes that the fight against the epidemic will intensify if the world's scientific institutions join their efforts. Hundreds of scientists, business and political leaders from 150 countries took part in the annual event of the International Science and Technology in Society Forum. Russia is testing the Sputnik-V vaccine, developed by the Gamelia National Research Center and the Russian Direct Investment Fund.
Russia's health ministry said in a statement that it had approved all necessary qualitative tests for the first batch of gum-covid-vak or Sputnik-5 vaccines to prevent corona. On August 11, the Russian Ministry of Health approved their first vaccine. It was the first corona vaccine approval event in the world. There has been a lot of talk about the Russian vaccine since it was approved last August. The rapid approval of the vaccine has raised questions in the Western media about its effectiveness.
