💉Russia last month registered the "Sputnik V", becoming the first country to approve a COVID-19 vaccine.

However, the country faced criticism for approving a vaccine before completion of Phase-3 trials.
💉According to the study, published in The Lancet, the researchers enrolled 76 healthy adult volunteers (aged 18-60 years) for the two Phase-1 and Phase-2 studies, 38 people in each study.

Very interesting and informative! Moscow Participant explains need for registration for Phase III trial and large & scale manufacturing & said the vaccine is not supposed to be offered till 2021!!
Apparently the Russians have been working on the #MERSCoV vaccine and used the same platform for #COVID19 - sounds reasonable to me?!
So, much Western envy about nothing?! #RussianVaccine

Moscow claims to have produced the world's first #COVID19 #vaccine. Few details have been shared, but here is what we know:
1.) testing has been done on fewer than 100 people
2.) Putin claims that all have antibodies and the only complication/side effect was fever
1/
3.) By definition, no #Phase3 trial has been done, so if we take Putin's work for it we can *perhaps* say there is evidence for safety, but no one can pretend there is evidence for efficacy as defined by "protection against #COVID19"

4.) This was an a priori ("first") claim

2/
5.) Even IF we take Putin at his word (and given that there is no independently verifiable evidence available), this would make the #RussianVaccine best case scenario on par with several other #COVID19 #vaccines which have been shown to be safe and produce antibodies...
