Vladimir Putin's coronavirus vaccine 'was approved after tests on only 38 people' and 'causes side-effects including fever, pain and swelling', official Russian documents reveal



Vladimir Putin's coronavirus vaccine was waved through after tests on only 38 people and causes side-effects including pain and swelling, according to official paperwork.


The much-trumpeted Russian drug was registered after just 42 days of research, Fontanka news agency says - and its effectiveness is said to be 'unknown'.

One of the documents submitted for registration says that 'no clinical studies have been conducted to study the epidemiological effectiveness,' despite Putin's claims that the vaccine has passed 'all the necessary tests'.

There are also questions about the vaccine's ability to create sufficient antibodies, after Putin said his own daughter had already developed them after being injected.

Russia has made the vaccine race a matter of national prestige and has named the product 'Sputnik V' after the former Soviet space satellites, prompting fears that safety will be compromised for the sake of Russia's image.

Scientists yesterday criticised Putin for the 'reckless and foolish' move which they say could make the pandemic worse if the vaccine proves dangerous or ineffective.

While Putin said his daughter had suffered no side effects worse than a high temperature, Fontanka claimed there were a long list of 'adverse events' (AEs) which occurred 'frequently and very often'.

'It is not possible to more accurately determine the incidence of AEs due to the limited sample of study participants,' said the Gamaleya Research Institute which produced the vaccine.

Where is the denigrating? Every test drug has AE and reporting it isn't unusual.

A lot of you have no idea how medical science and pharmacology actually work

Them don start...

Hmmm

Russia's coronavirus 'vaccine' announced by Vladimir Putin is shrouded in secrecy - but don't dismiss it just yet,

Russia's claims to have created the world’s first coronavirus vaccine should not be dismissed out of hand.

The country has a proud history of scientific achievements – it sent the first human into space and for decades led the world in the fields of engineering, mathematics and physics.

It also has a strong track record in producing reliable vaccines – notably for Ebola and yellow fever – and the Moscow institution behind the new jab, the Gamaleya Research Institute, is a long-established and well known research centre.

But it is hard to judge the safety and efficacy of the vaccine because very little information has been made available.

The teams behind experimental Covid vaccines in Oxford, the United States and China have all published detailed results of their trials at every stage.

The Russian team, however, have given little away.

The scant details suggest it is an adenovirus vector vaccine – a similar type to those being developed in Oxford and elsewhere.


These contain a weakened version of the common cold virus that has been genetically changed to trigger the production of immune cells – antibodies and T-cells.

Early results from China and Oxford suggest this is a sound approach – it is likely to produce an immune response with few side-effects.

Dem sha no wan cure this coro... Na wa ooo

I hope the scientist find cure to this pandemic soon

Ovoko

OK, even if it has a side effect as long as it doesn't kill people like chinese virus we are ok with it, we are tired of living live like it borrowed please, we want to start living a normal life.

Lmao the west are so jealous

CNN is just masturbating day on night about Russia's vaccine
