The HEAD of the Synodal Department for External Church Relations, Metropolitan Hilarion, said that the arguments of people who fear that vaccination against coronavirus will lead to other diseases and oppose vaccination are unreasonable. Commenting on the statement of one of the viewers of the Church and the World program, who said that the COVID-19 vaccine can lead to negative consequences, including infertility, impotence, reduced life expectancy, “and most importantly, microchipping,” Hilarion said: “If this is called prudence, then I very much doubt that a person is all right with his brains.

A vaccine against COVID-19 for children, which is being developed by the Center. N.F. Gamaleya, they can call it Sputnik M, said the head of the institution Alexander Gintsburg.

The Chumakov Center explained the difference between the KoviVac and Sputnik V vaccines. According to the deputy head of the center, Konstantin Chernov, in the case of vector vaccines (Sputnik V), the emphasis is on an increased concentration of S-protein, “just to which we [in the Chumakov center], in turn, do not appeal.” “In people who were vaccinated with the CoviVac vaccine, but did not have contact with the “live” SARS-CoV-2 virus, experts record a very high level of antibodies, the body is mobilized literally in a matter of hours,” he said. - If we introduce the body to only a part of a pathogen, then, accordingly, it will react only to this part. In our case, the body sees several proteins at once and reacts to them.”

In June-August 2021, Russia sold vaccines to foreign partners in value and physical terms more than in the previous five months. This summer, 203.6 tons of vaccines worth about $410 million were exported, according to the data of the Federal Customs Service. In January-May, it was only 159 tons for $303.6 million.
