The World's First New Coronavirus Vaccine is Available! More than 20 Countries are Scrambling to Buy 1 Billion Doses!

As the first successfully registered vaccine, it is naturally controversial from the outside world. Can it bear the doubt?

The World's First New Coronavirus Vaccine Comes Out

'Unless there is a vaccine, humans cannot compete with the new coronavirus.'

Many scientists use this sentence to obliterate the optimism that humans breed before the new coronavirus. The vaccine is like a wall, blocking the road to victory for the human race against the new crown epidemic. And now, this wall has been pushed down by humans.

The world's first new coronavirus vaccine was born in Russia. On August 11, the registrants made a historic stroke in the pharmaceutical registry of the Russian Ministry of Health. On the same day, Russia successfully obtained permission from the Ministry of Health, registered the world's first new crown vaccine. The Minister of Health of Russia stated that the fighting clan has given this vaccine to save the earth a heavenly name — Satellite-V (SPUTNIK V).

ABC : Putin announced that Russia has developed the world's first new coronavirus vaccine, but the WHO warned that the vaccine is advancing too fast.

CNN : Putin said that Russia has successfully developed the first new crown vaccine, but the problem is safety...

SMH : Russia successfully registered the new crown vaccine, but some warnings also came.

The name of the vaccine is literally translated as 'Satellite V'. Here, I would also like to express my gratitude for the efforts of the first four 'satellites'. On August 11, Russian Prime Minister Putin officially announced to the world, Russia’s first new coronavirus vaccine was approved and registered by the Ministry of Health in the morning of the same day. The vaccine can quickly enter the mass production stage.

According to reports, Russia said, this vaccine has successfully passed all stages of human clinical trials, it guarantees the safety of the vaccine. Russian Health Minister Murashko also stated that the vaccine will be produced at two locations, the Gamallea Institute and Binnopharm. Murashko said that many countries have expressed concern about Russian vaccines. Next, we will study the production and promotion overseas.

The vaccine has been tested on volunteers. The first batch of volunteers are staff of the National Research Center for Epidemiology and Microbiology in Gamallea. According to Sergei Celek, deputy attending physician at No. 52 Hospital in Moscow, 'They are like the creators of the new bridge-they are under this bridge, and the first train passes along this bridge!'

The test results show that the volunteers did not develop complications, and almost everyone developed strong antibodies.

To this end, Putin emphasized, the vaccine has gone through the necessary tests, and people can voluntarily get the vaccine. Russian officials said, vaccines will be mass-produced starting in September. Mass free vaccination may start as early as October.

The Russian health department stated that medical workers, teachers and other high-risk groups will receive the first batch of vaccinations.

Putin’s daughter’s personal test is valid, valid for two years. In order to test the safety and effectiveness of 'Satellite-V', Putin's daughter personally went to the battle to 'test the drug', and said that the pro-test is effective.

Putin said, One of his daughters also participated in the clinical trial. According to news from TASS News Agency on the 11th, Putin revealed at the government meeting that day that his daughter had a physical reaction after being vaccinated.

There are already high levels of antibodies. However, Putin's daughter's body also produced a slight 'rejection' reaction to the vaccine. Putin revealed at the meeting, 'One of my daughters was vaccinated. In this sense, she participated in the trial. Her daughter had a fever of 38 degrees after the first vaccination, and her body temperature was over 37 degrees the next day.'

After the first vaccination, his daughter developed a mild fever with a temperature of 38 degrees Celsius. Her temperature dropped to slightly higher than normal the next day. 'She feels good and the antibody titer is also high.' Putin did not specify which of the two daughters was vaccinated.

The validity period of the 'Satellite-V' vaccine is not permanent. But it can make the body produce antibodies to the new coronavirus that lasts up to 2 years. The Russian Health Minister stated, 'Vaccination against the new coronavirus can make people develop long-term immunity, which can last for two years.'

Because the way the vaccine works in the human body is not 'head-to-head', but the 'vector way'.

Russian researchers simply stated how the vaccine works in the human body, 'Attach a small piece of the orbital station of the coronavirus to an adenovirus that is harmless to humans like a rocket carrier and run in the human body. After that, immunity is formed on the 'rocket carrier' and the 'orbital station'. In order to consolidate the results, After three weeks, the 'orbital station' was re-run on 'other rocket carriers' (on another adenoviruses), and immunity was formed. As a result, the immunity formed on the two adenoviruses became weak, knowing that the human body does not need this. A stable and reliable immune protection is formed on the coronavirus.'

This vaccine seems to be very feasible in theory.

Over 20 Countries have Booked 1 billion Doses of Russian New Coronvirus Vaccine

According to 'Russia Today', Head of the Russian Sovereign Wealth Fund RDIF said, it has received requests from more than 20 countries around the world, requesting the purchase of 1 billion doses of Russian new coronavirus vaccine.

The report also stated that the vaccine is expected to start mass production in September, and more than 500 million doses will be produced annually in 5 countries.

The new coronavirus vaccine can be regarded as the top priority in recent years. This pioneering "Satellite-V" will naturally be questioned in many ways. The WHO, the United States, Germany, and various scientists have expressed doubts about the safety of the vaccine.

Questioning Voice

As the first person to 'vaccinate', it is natural to be controversial and questioned. Russia's new coronavirus vaccine 'Satellite-V' has also been questioned by all walks of life in the world.

The World Health Organization first stated that, it hopes to review the data related to the safety of the new crown vaccine in Russia.

WHO wants to review data on Russian vaccines

According to 'Global Times' report, WHO spokesperson Tariq Yasarevic said at an online press conference held in Geneva on the 11th : 'We are in close contact with the Russian health authorities and are discussing the possible pre-qualification of its vaccine by the WHO.'

'The pre-qualification of any vaccine includes a rigorous review and evaluation of all necessary safety and effectiveness data.'

Agence France-Presse said that according to the latest roundup released by the WHO on July 31, a total of 165 candidate vaccines are being developed around the world, of which 139 are still undergoing pre-clinical evaluation, and the remaining 26 are in different stages of human trials. Six of them are far ahead and have reached the third stage of clinical evaluation. The Russian new coronavirus vaccine is one of 26 vaccines currently undergoing human trials. It is currently listed as the first stage (of clinical evaluation).

The vaccine, which was in the first phase of the trial, turned into the world’s first registered vaccine. Naturally, people are suspicious.

U.S. Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services Aza said when talking about his views on the matter that day, ;The point is not to be the first to develop a vaccine, but to be safe and effective.'

Some people say that he is obviously a 'sour grape' mentality, but some people think that Azza makes sense.

According to the rules, vaccines need transparent data, and these data must come from the third phase of the vaccine clinical trial, to show that the vaccine is safe and effective.

On the other hand, Germany is also skeptical about the safety of Russian vaccines. German Federal Minister of Health Jens Spahn expressed doubts on the 'quality, effectiveness and safety' of the new coronavirus vaccine announced by Putin on August 11. He believes that patient safety should be the first priority. He said that the vaccine is being advanced too quickly, Therefore, he questioned whether there is enough data to show that the vaccine is safe and effective.

According to 'Reuters' reports, some scientific researchers also said that the speed of Russian vaccine advancement is 'unbelievable'. Francois Balloux, a researcher at the Institute of Genetics at University College London, also said, the decision announced by Russian President Putin was reckless and stupid. Balloux said that large-scale vaccination was carried out without a good test. This would be an unethical practice.

British experts also said that Russia's decision to mass production and large-scale vaccination would be catastrophic. People will lose confidence in the new coronavirus vaccine in the future. Danny Altmann, Professor of Immunology at Imperial College London, said, this will bring 'collateral damage' to vaccine development, because the safety and efficacy of Russia’s vaccines are still unclear. This ratio 'will inevitably exacerbate our current development problems'.

According to the 'Moscow Times' report, Russia will not start the third phase of clinical testing until August 12 (today). By then, more than 2,000 people will participate. It seems that the 'Satellite-V' vaccine registered 'the first' in Russia has not been widely recognized by the world.

But in this extraordinary period, if the vaccine is really safe and effective, can it also be used as a 'a priori' reagent?
