“It remains to be seen whether this vaccine’s effective, whether it’s safe,” ScottGottliebMD says about Russia’s coronavirus vaccine. “I don’t think it’s ready for primetime.”

's claim that the country's potential vaccine for the coronavirus "works quite effectively," saying Tuesday that the vaccine still needs critical testing to determine whether it's safe and effective.what he said is the first coronavirus vaccine in the world, adding that one of his daughters has already taken it.

Dr. Paul Offit, director of the Vaccine Education Center at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, said he worries Russia's vaccine approval could pressure the U.S. to deploy a vaccine before it's ready. There are more than 150 vaccines under development worldwide, including Russia's, according to the WHO, with 26 already in human trials.The vaccine also appears to face a tough hurdle winning approval from the WHO before the international health organization will buy or recommend it to other nations.

To be sure, Russia has "phenomenal" scientists and is a powerhouse when it comes to many aspects of science, said infectious disease specialist Isaac Bogoch. Although he has "no doubts" Russia can create a safe and effective vaccine, Bogoch said he was still skeptical.

ScottGottliebMD Sorry DeionSanders

ScottGottliebMD that's completely bullshit, where is the vaccine which is being talked in all news ? that's just a fake news, in order to maintain policies of russian politicians, there is no vaccine and am sure that no one will be able to produce it until 2022 Politicians Vs. MainStreet

ScottGottliebMD Doesn’t matter. I won’t be getting it if it came from Russia. Great way to finish off America.

ScottGottliebMD Sputnik Shock next level. Western world pissing its pants, because they paid billions to useless pharma giants that turned out to be useless, what a shame :)

ScottGottliebMD

ScottGottliebMD From a propaganda aspect, SputnikV is actually a pretty good name.

ScottGottliebMD 'dr gottlieb, here are some rubles for your accounts...would you like them all now, or installments, da?'

ScottGottliebMD any idea how many people have taken it voluntarily? how long would we know if it works or if there is legit concerns?

ScottGottliebMD Probably more effective then Remdesivir which Scott backer despite questionable results. Follow the big pharma $$$$

ScottGottliebMD Bitching about other rushed vaccines and pushing ours fast tracked ass well. Like if it’s the best thing on earth.

ScottGottliebMD lol all the united states vaccines are being rushed that would normally take years...and they are safe? 1978 there was a massive vaccine program for an influenza strain and the vaccine caused deaths and immunodisorders...over 1/3 of americans were vaccinated with it.

ScottGottliebMD We want music festivals back!

ScottGottliebMD Bet t Rump thinks it's safe, or will be by election day.

tbell1968 ScottGottliebMD Russia’s coronavirus vaccine is sugar water

ScottGottliebMD Well, let’s ask Primetime himself ... Deion what say you? DeionSanders

ScottGottliebMD If only it was from $MRNA, the dunces at CNBC could pump it all day long as a miracle cure.

ScottGottliebMD Who the hell would take it? Not me. Even if it was the only one available.

ScottGottliebMD Its not the FDA man you want to talk to, you want WHO, and CDC.

ScottGottliebMD hey scott ... if they have NOT RELEASED any test data ... what scientific basis would you have to 'think it's not ready for prime time'? It could well be AS fully tested as any of the companies RUSHING their development of the vaccines they plan to inject in MILLIONS of Americans

ScottGottliebMD Says a guy who hasn’t even seen their formula

ScottGottliebMD andrewrsorkin next time please ask him if he would take the Russian vaccine? Should you take it. Plain English answer that all can relate to. I know his answer but the American people should hear it. Thanks!

ScottGottliebMD No vaccine is “safe” without at least two years of human trials.

ScottGottliebMD No way would I take a vaccine from Putin Russia. You have got to be kidding. F Russia

ScottGottliebMD But trump will pay his latest loan installment under the guise of getting Americans the vaccine! Much like the PPE that he purchased with our money that was useless I suspect the vaccine will be the same.

ScottGottliebMD It's a virus. Better if he shared the preventative & curative antiviral actions. If he ever learned them. Would he recognize a company disguising them, internally first? Pharma is happy for him to talk about their stuff.

ScottGottliebMD Exactly.

ScottGottliebMD Pharma shill

ScottGottliebMD Its a fact that need more trust worthy remote workers
