Protsenko called stuffing rumors about infertility after vaccination against covid-19 Society

Earlier on June 17, the HEAD physician of the hospital in Kommunarka, where patients with COVID-19 are, Denis Protsenko, said that reports of infertility after an injection of a coronavirus vaccine are stuffed. “I absolutely don’t understand why this stuffing was taken, I can’t call it another way. Let's think logically. The vaccine is not yet a year old, so no one could assess the risks of infertility,” the DOCTOR explained.

In May, the head of the Ministry of HEALTH, Mikhail Murashko, announced the first results of a study on the use of Sputnik V on pregnant women. According to the minister, the vaccine is completely safe for pregnant women.

In June, he announced that the authorities would decide on the vaccination of pregnant women in the coming weeks. Murashko noted that in some women from this category, the coronavirus infection is extremely difficult, so experts will approve the use of Sputnik V for prevention by the end of June.
