Russia Covid-19 vaccine for use, First To Putin’s daughter

There is a rat race among countries to come up with a vaccine for the global pandemic Covid-19. Amidst this, Russia has declared that it has registered the ‘World First Vaccine’ for Covid-19. Even more surprisingly, the news was confirmed by Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Speaking Russia State TV Putin said, “A vaccine against coronavirus has been registered for the first time in the world this morning. I know that it works quite effectively, it forms a stable immunity. So we’re the first to have registered. I hope our foreign colleagues’ work will move as well, and a lot of products will appear on an international market that could be used.”

Putin added that one of his daughters had taken the vaccine after she complained of fever.

The vaccine was developed by the Moscow-based Gamaleya Institute but some pharmaceutical companies have called Russia’s rushed registration dangerous and the vaccine needs approvals from international organisation such as WHO.

As soon as this news broke out, #RussainVaccine and Putin are trending on social media. But there are many doubts on it.

We have to wait till the vaccine shows positive results and be useful in containing the virus.
