Putin emphasized that the vaccine underwent the necessary tests and has proven efficient, offering a lasting immunity from the coronavirus. However, scientists at home and abroad have been sounding the alarm that the rush to start using the vaccine before Phase 3 trials -- which normally last for months and involve thousands of people -- could backfire.
The Russian leader added that one of his two adult daughters has received two shots of the vaccine. "She has taken part in the experiment," Putin said. The Health Ministry said in Tuesday's statement that the vaccine is expected to provide immunity from the coronavirus for up to two years.Russian authorities have said that medical workers, teachers and other risk groups will be the first to be inoculated. Deputy Prime Minister Tatyana Golikova said that the vaccination of doctors could start as early as this month.
Becoming the first country in the world to develop a vaccine was a matter of national prestige for the Kremlin as it tries to assert the image of Russia as a global power. State television stations and other media have praised scientists working on it and presented the work as the envy of other nations.
Um no..... dont think that happen. Can someone remind Putin that this is not a space race and requires double blind placebo studies
I’d trust that like I’d trust eating his borsch
But we will be all ok with the vaccine cooked in China? 😀
Considering Russia has far higher vaccine safety record than USA I only wish i could get their vesion over the usual low bid winner What with USA creating and spreading new Polio strain from bad batches of live vaccine throughout Africa & HPV reactions USA is less trustworthy
Lol, um no.. Russia become the first country to register Putin giving his daughter a vitamin shot. As for vaccine, dubious theory at best when they we’re caught trying to hack all the countries of the world for it.
Was it like this? 👇👀
Suuuuuuure.
Putin saved trump. Well this time i am sure putin is helping him to win the elections.
Sure he did.
?!
Giving shady vaccines to a family member seems more like a Kim Jong Un play. . .
Does anyone believe a vaccine can be developed, TESTED, and manufactured so quickly? Sure you could put something tgt quickly, but what about the long term health effects? If you're going to administer it to millions - you better make sure its flawless.
Fake news imagine ctv showing Russia in a positive light
Trump will be pushing this soon
Ridiculous. Don’t trust him or believe anything he says. If they do have a virus I wouldn’t take it.
Somebody had sex with Putin? Perhaps she was a test tube baby.😷 Russia RussianVaccine vaccine
I'll pass on anything Russian-made. Can't be trusted.
Why his daughter and not himself?
