Why doesn't the world trust Russia's Corona vaccine?


New delhi date. 11 August 2020, Tuesday

Russian President Vladimir Putin has claimed that Russia has successfully developed a vaccine against the corona virus. But the world is watching Russia with suspicion, and many questions are being raised about Russia's vaccine.

1. The biggest reason for the Russian vaccine to be questioned is that Russia has not made as much information about the vaccine public as Britain and the United States have. When did the trial begin? How long did it last? How many people got involved? Are there any side effects of the vaccine? How many people became infected with corona after being vaccinated? Russia has not made such information public.

2. Phase III trials are the most important for any vaccine. Thousands of people are being vaccinated for a long time at this stage. While such a clinical trial in Russia has not yet been completed.

3. The Russian vaccine was tested on monkeys and humans. Russia also reportedly had success in the test. But the vaccine company has not tested the vaccine on a large scale, which could test its safety and risk.

4. The New York Times reports that the world is concerned that Russia is hastily claiming the vaccine's success because of politics and propaganda. The World Health Organization also warned last week that Russia should try the vaccine traditionally.

5. The World Health Organization has compiled a list of all vaccines around the world that are being worked on. The Russian vaccine is not included in this list.

6. The New York Times says it sent questions to Russia's health ministry last week about the vaccine's trial and side effects, but has not received an answer.

7. Britain, the United States and Canada have previously accused Russia of trying to steal research into the coronavirus. For all these reasons, Russia is looking at the corona vaccine with suspicion.
