_Happy boy Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 The Russian Ministry of Health announced, on Saturday, that the country has already started producing a vaccine against the emerging corona virus, despite a campaign to question its efficacy and safety for users. Russia said that the vaccine, which was developed by the "Gamalia" Institute in Moscow and the Russian Ministry of Defense, and is the first to begin production to treat the Corona virus, will be offered at the end of this August. On Tuesday, Russian President Vladimir Putin confirmed that his country is the first country to ratify an anti-virus vaccine, despite the fact that the final-stage tests, which include more than two thousand people, were scheduled to start Wednesday. The next day, the World Health Organization said it was looking forward to reviewing clinical trials of a vaccine developed by Russia. The organization says that 28 of more than 150 experimental vaccines are currently being tested on humans, of which 6 have reached the third stage, which is the final stage in which the candidate product is tested on large groups of people. The Russian vaccine is one of 28 vaccines that reached the third stage, but the World Health Organization is including it in the first stage. The organization said in a statement that it is "in contact with Russian scientists and the Russian authorities and looks forward to reviewing the details of the experiments," adding that it "welcomes all developments in the ongoing research on vaccines against Covid 19 and in the field of vaccine development."
