And another name that we have to remember: KoviVac is the name of the new vaccine that will be used soon. “Today Russia is the only country that already has three vaccines,” Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin said in Moscow on Saturday.
The active ingredient was developed at the Chumakov Research Center for Immunobiological Preparations of the Russian Academy of Sciences. According to this, 20 million cans should be produced before the end of the year. Complete clinical studies are not yet available.
In mid-August, Russia released Sputnik V, the world’s first corona vaccine, for widespread use in the population, although important evidence was still lacking at the time. The active ingredient is now registered in about 30 countries. In Russia, however, only more than 2.2 million people have received at least one of the two necessary injections. That corresponds to about 1.5 percent of the population of the huge country.

There has been a lot of criticism about it, most recently from the EU. “We are constantly increasing the rate of vaccine production,” Mishustin said. More than ten million cans of Sputnik V have already been manufactured. In addition, 80,000 doses of the second Russian vaccine EpiVacCorona were available. According to previous information, the active ingredient should be used in Russia next month.
According to Deputy Prime Minister Tatiana Golikowa, Sputnik V is manufactured in seven locations. Three more are being prepared. He demanded that even more people over 65 should be protected from disease with vaccines. So far, the 68-year-old Kremlin head Vladimir Putin has yet to get vaccinated against the crown.
Since the beginning of the year, the number of new infections in Russia has dropped to around 13,000 cases in one day.
