Russia's newly approved coronavirus vaccine will be called Sputnik V, in homage to the Soviet Union's Cold War-era satellite program, but there are already concerns about its safety.

Russia's newly approved coronavirus vaccine will be called Sputnik V, in homage to the Soviet Union's Cold War-era satellite program.But experts say approving the vaccine so early is dangerousPresident Vladimir Putin announced Russia had become the first country to grant regulatory approval to a COVID-19 vaccineThe vaccine has, however, not yet completed its final trials and Russia's announcement to grant approval before then has raised concerns among some experts.

Only about 10 per cent of clinical trials are successful, and some scientists fear Moscow may be putting national prestige before safety.The President said one of his daughters had taken it as a volunteer, and felt good afterwards."I know that it works quite effectively, forms strong immunity, and I repeat, it has passed all the necessary checks," Mr Putin told a government meeting.

Russian business conglomerate Sistema expects to put the vaccine, developed by Moscow's Gamaleya Institute, into mass production by the end of the year.Government officials have said it will be administered to medical personnel, and then to teachers, on a voluntary basis at the end of this month or in early September. Mass roll-out in Russia is expected to start in October.

The vaccine is administered in two doses and consists of two serotypes of a human adenovirus, each carrying an S-antigen of the new coronavirus, which enter human cells and produce an immune response. The platform used for the vaccine was developed by Russian scientists over two decades and formed the basis for several vaccines in the past, including those against Ebola, Russian officials said.

..... and?

AustralianStory These Russian leaders, they are willing to kill millions of their own citizens to keep them selves in power. Historically shown. Citizens of Russia do not take the vaccine.

Translation: “Wait......What?”

... where is MAGA and TRUMP2020 warning us about the tracking chips embedded in the vaccine? Nanotechnology... Cue the Clown Car, three, two, one....

Yeah, dream on china 😂🤣😂🤣

Trump will be buying some for himself and family. Hopefully it doesn’t work.

Uhm....is it safe?🤔

My brother use to call me Sputnik when I was a child. He said I should have been shot into space. I didn’t get it.

You should try it ABC - I wouldn’t go anywhere near it. Rather take my chances with the virus

Don’t believe anything from there!

I guess the Russian people are the guinea pigs for us all

Who would believe a thing the Russians have to say.

Don’t trust this is safe so once people take it I wonder how many will get sick from it, if not die from it. Rather wait for one that has gone through all the required stages of testing.

Russian roulette

Good news

Non

anjay mantep bagidong

We are all anti-vaxxers now!

Is Trusting Russia smart? 😙 Nyet!

Putin tested the vaccine on his own daughter, I’m not sure that’s a good thing or brutal as hell. Why didn’t he test on himself if he’s really that selfless and would rather sacrifice his own blood? CoronavirusVaccine

Sounds like a bomb 💣

Yes, sure he has. How much is he charging for a vaccine that has no proof that it actually works ?

the only people who think russia is cool are russians lmfao

It looks like the words “request” and “order” are being used synonymously here...in the article it sounds to me more like a “hey Vlad, if your vaccine turns out to be effective, I’m gonna need x amount of doses” type of request rather than actual orders (that come at a price).

There will be one for putin

He probably is going to sell it to an Orange Idiot , who will then claim to have many many doses of the vaccine available through an Orange Corporation he owns.

I’m going to get some of Putin’s vax, Bill’s vax, the Oxford one, the Aussie “molecular clamp” one, with a hydroxychloroquine chaser. Congratulations bitches, I’ll be immortal! 😂

nyet!

AustralianStory Bool shite.

from Russia with love. no thanks!

well done, hope it works

And just like that all the pro vaxxers became anti vaxxers. Either the science works or it doesnt.

I hope it works.

No stage 3 testing to ensure that it's safe. I feel very sorry for the guinea pigs that are buying it.

And your point is ?

Said to contain 98% vodka

So says Putin.

If it wasn’t for the Russians there would be no people left to walk on the moon, this is bigger than the space race

arozenbachs said it best

Stolen vaccines.

Putin to rescue Trump.

No way is it safe!

1 billion?

Will the conspiracy nuts now come out and tell us Putin and Bill Gates have colluded

Sounds out of this world. 🤷‍♂️

Is it safe? Can you sue? What is in it? Is it mandatory? Pretty much the 4 questions anyone with 1/2 brain cell should be asking.

I'm waiting for Kim Jong Un's vaccine...

🥱

Lol named sputnik like the rocket

What’s the angle here?

I'll let our dimwitted MAGA friends give it a test run first once putin gives his little trump the order to start promoting it.

I know! They created the virus, and they’ve always had the vaccine! Now they can ‘save the world’ 😄😇

And I have a bridge to sell.

I think the ABC people that promote this rubbish should be the first to try it.

Sputnik 5. May not cure COVID19 , but it will make you forget about Covid19.

Donnie has already placed the order

Yeah i’ll believe Putin about the coronavirus vaccine when ican believe his claim Russia was covid free the whole time.

Make it 999,999,999 I’ll pass thanks
