RDIF CEO Kirill Dmitriev held a productive meeting with the Vice Prime Minister of Slovakia Igor Matovič. RDIF remains committed to assisting the people of Slovakia with vaccination by Sputnik V.
Unfortunately, in violation of existing contract and in an act of sabotage the State Institute of Drug Control ensured that Sputnik V tested in a laboratory which is not part of the EU’s Official Medicines Control Laboratory network even though OMCL laboratories were available.
SIDC has launched a disinformation campaign against #SputnikV and plans additional provocations. Statement by SIDC that the batch of Sputnik V delivered to Slovakia does not have the same characteristics as the vaccine described in The Lancet is fake news.
All Sputnik V batches are of the same quality and undergo rigorous quality control at the Gamaleya Institute. The quality of #SputnikV has been confirmed by regulators in 59 countries.
RDIF has requested the Slovak government to send the vaccine to the EU certified laboratory for testing (part of the OMCL network) and has sent a letter on April 6, 2021 asking to return the vaccine due to multiple contract violations so that it can be used in other countries.
We hope that Slovakia will resolve its internal differences and are committed to work together to defeat COVID. Vaccines should save lives and should not be used in geopolitical and internal political struggles. Together we are stronger. ✌️

Clarification from #Sputnik V team on 2 fake news today:
1) Report of a special investigation into #SputnikV clinical trials published in FT today is incorrect. Sputnik V team is going through a regular rolling review of EMA, in which good clinical practice (GCP) is a part of the standard procedure for all vaccines.
Sputnik V specifically invited EMA to conduct a rolling review and is showing full transparency. 59 countries already confirmed Sputnik V compliance with GCP and we expect EMA to do so as well.

#SputnikV team believes that AstraZeneca research that 3 months interval between their shots works better than 3 weeks one shows:

thelancet.com/journals/lance…
1. Immunity created by the first AZ shot prevents the second shot from being effective (overall efficacy of only 55%) unless there is a wait of 3 months
2. Sputnik V solves this elegantly through heterogeneous boosting (using a different second shot)

3. Using Sputnik V shot as a second shot for AZ vaccine will eliminate the need to wait for 3 months. Clinical trials of this approach have already started.

In response to EU leadership question on why #SputnikV vaccine is offered to EU while vaccination in Russia is not yet complete:
1. Mass doses of Sputnik V for Europeans have been offered after EMA approval and after mass vaccination in Russia is complete in June, 2021. This timeline can be accelerated by engaging EU production facilities that are waiting for EMA approval.
2. In the meantime, Russia will supply doses to Hungary and some other EU nations that decided to order Sputnik V directly
