disclaimer: this is just what i gather from reading articles about it! pls pls research about the vaccine coz it’s not looking good 
August 11 2020, Russia’s President Vladimir Putin announced in the state owned TV Network the approval of the ‘world’s first COVID vaccine’ https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-53735718
Sputnik V is a vaccine developed by Gamaleya Institute, a Moscow-based facility, funded by Russian Direct Investment Fund ( a state-owned investment fund). 2. The vaccine is based on the SARS-CoV-2 type adenovirus DNA, a type of common cold virus.
The vaccine basically uses the weakened virus to simulate your immune response against COVID.
however the vaccine has been faced with questions and concerns about its safety since the announcement of its approval. these are some good articles that explained the concerns over the vaccine’s safety and effectivity:
summarizing the points in the articles:
- concern over the unfinished trial, the vaccine has not pass the phase III of the clinical trial for vaccines, aka the most crucial part of the trials.
