An effective covid-19 vaccine is
a turning point in the pandemic
• Russia and China have been vaccinating some citizens against
covid-19 for some time outside the scope of clinical trials. On
November 11th the Russian Direct Investment Fund
announced that data showed Russia’s vaccine, known as
Sputnik V, to be 92% effective. Before the Pfizer
announcement this would have seemed highly implausible.
Now it may seem less so, though the evidence is weak
compared with Pfizer’s. And neither Sputnik V nor the Chinese
vaccines have yet had their safety and efficacy addressed by
the stringent regulators at the Food and Drug Administration
(FDA) in America and the European Medicines Agency (EMA).
