[5/7] Human adenoviral vector used in #SputnikV vaccine has been shown to be safe long term in 250 clinical studies over decades. There have been no long-term studies of the safety of novel approaches such as mRNA and chimpanzee adenovirus.
[6/7] The core #SputnikV advantage is the use of two different adenoviral vectors for two shots. Vaccines that use the same delivery mechanism twice make the second shot less effective because of immunity to the first shot.
[7/7] Despite some ill-conceived attempts to undermine the vaccine due to competition and geopolitics, #SputnikV is confidently making its way to Latin America, Middle East, Asia, Africa, and other regions as many people see through the information lobbying.
Russia wants all safe and effective vaccines to be successful. Only together can we save lives and restore our economies and well-being. Follow us on Twitter and other social platforms to receive #SputnikV news and updates on Sputnik V 2021 launch in your country.
