Good news from the World Health Organization about the Corona vaccine

“We will need vaccines, and there is hope that we can get a vaccine until the end of this year. There is hope,” Tedros said, in a speech he gave Tuesday during the conclusion of the two-day meetings of the Executive Committee concerned with the emerging coronavirus pandemic.

The mechanisms for developing vaccines “COVAX”, led by the World Health Organization, are working on 9 candidate vaccines against the virus, and aim to distribute about two billion doses of the effective vaccine after obtaining it until the end of the year 2021.

A wide range of countries, including Russia, the United States, Britain, France, and China, are locked in a global race to develop effective vaccines against the emerging corona virus “COVID-19”.

Currently, Russia is the first country in the world to register a vaccine against the emerging corona virus, developed by the Gamalia Center for Epidemiology and Microbiology Research, and named “Sputnik V” after the name of the first satellite in the world launched by the Soviet Union in 1957.

The results of a study prepared by the team concerned with developing the vaccine and published in the medical journal “The Lancet” confirmed that the “Sputnik V” vaccine stimulated the formation of antibodies in all participants in the first and second phase trials.

The vaccine is now subject to post-registration trials involving about 42,000 people in Russia, a number of foreign countries.
