Nicholas Maduro Guerra
The son of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro Nicolas Maduro Guerra was vaccinated with the Russian Sputnik V vaccine against coronavirus. Reported by RT.
After the procedure, he said that Russia turned out to be a “stronghold” of medicine at the global level. While some countries “concentrate on fueling war, intervention, sanctions and attempts to harm,” Russia is focusing on “finding a cure for world diseases.”
Newly elected to parliament, Maduro Jr. became one of the volunteers involved in the third phase of drug trials in the Latin American country. Now he will be under the supervision of local doctors for six months, who are in direct contact with the vaccine developers in the Gamaleya center.
Venezuelan authorities expect to begin mass vaccinations from April to May 2021.
On December 2, President Vladimir Putin ordered the start of vaccination of Russians with the domestic drug Sputnik V from the Gamaleya Center. In Moscow, the campaign began on December 5. On Thursday, December 10, it became known that the procedure will begin in the regions within a week. Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin urged to ensure its holding during the New Year holidays from 1 to 10 January.
According to the head of Rospotrebnadzor Anna Popova, Moscow, St. Petersburg, Tula, Novosibirsk and Rostov-on-Don received the second Russian vaccine against the EpiVacCorona coronavirus from the Vector Center. She was released into civilian circulation.
