Russia's COVID-19 vaccine to complete clinical trial in September - vestnik kavkaza

The clinical trial of a Russian COVID-19 vaccine being developed by the Siberian Vektor research centre is due to be completed in September, according to Russia’s healthcare watchdog.

The watchdog added that all the volunteers taking part in the clinical trials of the COVID-19 vaccine are feeling fine.

"14 persons were vaccinated during the first phase, and 43 more during the second phase. Forty-three more volunteers from the placebo control group received a placebo", Rospotrebnadzor said.

The watchdog went on to say that the volunteers only experienced sensitivity at the injection site, but other than that did not have any side effects, Sputnik reported.

Last week, Russia registered the world’s first COVID-19 vaccine, named Sputnik V and developed by the Gamaleya Institute. The vaccine has been tested on 76 volunteers separately at two institutions — the Moscow-based Sechenov University and the Russian Defenсe Ministry's Burdenko Main Military Clinical Hospital. Phase 3 in the trial of the Russian vaccine, involving around 2,000 people, is currently underway.
