American vaccine experts are alarmed by Russian President Vladimir Putin’s announcement that Russia will begin vaccinating against the coronavirus.
American infectious diseases specialists and vaccinologists raised alarms about Russia’s announcement that it would begin vaccinating its population against the coronavirus, rushing a relatively untested vaccine into mass production.
Offit, who is a member of the National Institutes of Health COVID vaccine working group, said he worries about the precedent being set by the Russians in proclaiming victory on an untested vaccine. He said he was struck by the political undertones in Putin’s vaccine claims. While he is dubious about the Russian vaccine, Offit said he is heartened overall by the progress being made globally.
Walt compared the Russian approval of a vaccine without phase III trials to playing with a partially loaded gun.
