Russian cosmonauts, who are expected to head towards the International Space Station next month, say it is still too early for them to receive the much-marked vaccine from Russia's president, Vladimir Putin.
I mean, personally, I wouldn't be vaccinated because I handle this case very carefully”, Sergei Rygikov, 46, leader of the next expedition at the Space Station during October, said. He and other cosmonauts have put masks at the training centre outside Moscow while holding an online press conference.
His comments came after Putin strongly praised the coronary vaccine, which was developed in record times. This vaccine has been named “Sputnik V”, according to Soviet-era satellite, the first ever launched in space in 1957.
The moment the vaccine is tested and its credibility confirmed, then the decision will be made to recommend the cosmonauts inoculation”, said the other cosmonaut, Sergei Kud-Sverchkov.
He insisted that the decision depends on doctors who are responsible for the health of cosmonauts, including immunization. Russia sparked concerns among Western scientists, when it announced that its vaccine against Corleone has been approved before all clinical trials are conducted.
