The first potential vaccine in the world is now being available to the public in the capital city of Moscow. Although the reports have not yet been approved by authorities, Russia has repeatedly emphasized the improvement and diffusion of the vaccine as early as possible.

Sputnik V, an adenovirus vector-based vaccine, was developed by the Gamaleya Scientific Research Institute of Epidemiology and Microbiology, along with the Russian Direct Investment Fund and registered on August 11. Notably, Russian President Vladamir Putin has offered to provide the vaccine to United Nations staff for free of cost. Putin during his speech at this year’s UN General Assembly meeting stated, “Russia is ready to offer UN workers the necessary, qualified help, and in particular we propose to supply our vaccine for free to employees of the organization and its subsidiaries who volunteer for vaccination."
