In early October, Russia delivered the first batch of its vaccine to Venezuela — the first country in the Western Hemisphere to participate in phase 3 clinical trials of the vaccine. “This is rather a political issue than a health and medical one. From the scientific point of view, the Russian vaccine had no complications, it is […]

The vaccination of volunteers will begin on 1 October as “part of double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trials of the Sputnik V vaccine”, the press release read.

The Testing of the chimpanzee adenovirus-based vaccine had been repeatedly called into question for the “dangerous” lack of sufficient trials on chimp viruses as well as the unclear consequences of the new technology. The trials of AstraZeneca vaccine candidate remain on hold in the US. Days after AstraZeneca halted clinical trials of its COVID-19 vaccine over the case of unexplained neurological illness in one volunteer taking part in the study, the British-Swedish pharmaceutical company released an 111-page trial blueprint, which promises an anti-coronavirus drug with “50% effectiveness”. That was the first time AstraZeneca revealed the second case of serious illness by […]
MOSCOW (Sputnik) – The disrupted clinical trials of the UK coronavirus vaccine by the AstraZeneca pharmaceutical company have exposed the risks associated with the excessive reliance upon new unverified technologies, an approach that Russia finds unacceptable, Kirill Dmitriev, the head of the Russian Direct Investment Fund (RDIF), said on Saturday. “We are delighted that AstraZeneca has resumed its trials and continues to move forward. At the same time, the suspension of trials clearly showed the fallacy of the approach, when entire countries exclusively rely on novel and untested platforms when choosing a vaccine for widespread use, including the use of a […]

He emphasized Russia’s willingness to cooperate with international partners. “Russia has a very open position, a position partnership and readiness to cooperate with all international […]
Earlier, the head of Russia’s sovereign wealth fund stated that more than 10 countries are currently pursuing fast-track registrations of COVID-19 vaccines and therapeutics. CEO of the Russian Direct Investment Fund (RDIF) Kirill Dmitriev has welcomed the UK’s decision to revise its law and allow emergency use of any effective coronavirus vaccine before it’s fully licensed, if it meets the required safety and quality standards. “The need for mechanisms for accelerated registration of safe and effective drugs during a pandemic is gradually being understood in the West. British Prime Minister Boris Johnson spoke about the intention to amend local legislation today, […]
The Russian health minister earlier dismissed allegations of ineffectiveness and potential dangers of the first vaccine protecting against COVID-19, alleging that such rumours are just a result of “certain competition” felt by foreign colleagues of the Russian researchers. The announcement of the registration of the first coronavirus vaccine in Russia was met with attempts by the western mainstream media to play down the news of the breakthrough drug by questioning its safety and effectiveness. These concerns, however, hold no water since an adenovirus vaccine has been in use by the US Army for decades and has been applied to millions of […]

These are typical accusations without any evidence, and […]
