Congress. “To say have a vaccine ready to be distributed before the test, I think, is problematic, to say the least,” added the highly respected director of the american Institute of infectious diseases, which estimated that the United States will not have to rely on vaccines from other countries.

Kirill Dmitriev, chairman of a sovereign wealth fund Russian funding of development of one of the two, has compared the current run to the vaccine anti-Covid to the conquest of space. “The Americans were amazed when they heard the signal from the Sputnik, the first artificial satellite launched by the USSR in 1957, he told the american news channel CNN. “With the vaccine, it will be the same thing.
