Kirill Dmitriev, director of the Russian Direct Investment Fund that supports the Sputnik V vaccine, said he had complete confidence in the scientists involved in the assignment and its improved techniques over many years of Ebola study.
“We’re under attack for not doing it long enough,” he told Fox News. “We are also under attack through the pharmaceutical industry and some politicians. Scientists who perceive this know that the credibility of our institute is strong because it is one of the most productive institutes in the world for vaccines. We probably wouldn’t be strong in vaccines. in some other areas, but in vaccines, Russia is strong.”

Dmitriev says he also used the vaccine himself and his family, his septuagenarian parents.
He recalled key moments in the history of Russian science and medicine. Russian leader Catherine the Great was one of the first to believe in the concept of the vaccine, having brought an English doctor to St. Petersburg to vaccinate her and her son against smallpox that was widespread across the country in 1768. He took the remedy and allegedly had a team of horses on hand in case things went wrong and this doctor had to be kicked out of the country to avoid a lynching.
Dmitriev explained that the new vaccine works in a dual vector system, handling two other adenoviruses that deliver a protein in the form of a crown and is produced through the Gamelaya Institute.
The World Health Organization has not obtained complete data on the possible vaccine opposite COVID-19 in Russia and therefore cannot compare it. “Accelerating vaccine studies will have to be done through the processes established at each level of development, to ensure that all vaccines that will eventually be put into production are effective,” WHO, a UN agency, said in a statement. “WHO is in contact with Russian scientists and government and looks forward to reviewing the main points of the trials.”
The Science Media Center in the United Kingdom published a reaction to Russia’s announcement through several teachers. Many expressed fear at the lack of transparency in the proceedings and the fact that the Russians rushed it.
Dmitriev said the vaccine had gone through stages one and two of the 3 popular stages, but some wonder if they got this far.
Phase 3 is expected to last months and detect side effects as well as the effectiveness of the vaccine against the larger sample.
Danny Altman, professor of immunology at Imperial College London, wrote: “The collateral damage caused by the release of a less effective and less effective vaccine would insurmountably aggravate our existing disorders. We’re all in the same boat.”
“I hope that other countries will not be attracted to such nationalism in the arrangement of barrels of red meat … decision-making is published, open to review and freed from the wave of the flag. Skill.”
Sputnik, the world’s first satellite introduced into orbit and sparked an area race.
There is no doubt that Putin would like to save the world from COVID-19. He wouldn’t be the one.
Dmitriev insisted that Russia needs to paint in combination on remedies and remedies with other countries.
“We believe that we have a political ceasefire on the coronavirus, on vaccines. We’re human after all,” he said. “We are the first humans and the citizens of our countries second.”
Russia has noticed more than 900,000 cases and more than 15,000 COVID-19 deaths since the start of the pandemic.

Dmitriev says Russia will release its knowledge later this month and others will be able to see it for themselves in more detail. Russia plans to start with widespread vaccinations in October, but will continue to verify until and this period.
