Russia has given regulatory approval to a COVID-19 vaccine
Western experts have their protection and effectiveness
The U.S. FDA has been in the U.S. But it’s not the first time Supports the accelerated procedure if they outweigh the risks
The UK is moving towards an expedited procedure if protection tests are successful

MOSCOW, 31 Aug (Reuters) – Comments through a senior US official and Britain’s movements towards an imaginable acceleration of COVID-19 vaccines show that the West now admits that Russia did well to approve a vaccine in August, a Russian official said on Monday.
Russia this month granted regulatory approval to a COVID-19 vaccine after less than two months of human testing, which led some Western experts to protect and effectively.
Since then, the head of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has said he would be willing to circumvent the general approval procedure for authorizing a COVID-19 vaccine as long as officials are convinced they are above and beyond the dangers.
Last week, the UK government presented plans that would allow the UK medical regulator to grant transitority approval for any coronavirus vaccine before it has been fully authorised if it meets the standards of protection and quality.
The United States and London were now following “exactly Russia’s example,” said Kirill Dmitriev, director of russia’s Direct Investment Fund, Russia’s sovereign wealth fund, which has been strongly in Russia’s vaccination program.
“The Western world was surprised by Russia’s past fortune (by generating a possible vaccine) and had to go through 4 steps to settle for the inevitable: denial, anger, depression and, in the end, settling on the road,” he said in a statement.
“Recent statements show that we have already reached the level of depression and that it is now accepted that Russia is the right one.”
Russia has now begun phase III trials of the “Sputnik V” vaccine, which will prove its effectiveness in a larger organization of volunteers.It is also preparing to approve a momentary vaccine opposed to COVID-19 in September or early October.
Health Minister Mikhail Murashko said mass vaccination of high-risk equipment would begin in November-December.
