Russia's Sputnik V vaccine over 90% effective: health ministry
Russia's Sputnik V vaccine against Covid-19 is more than 90% effective, a representative of the health ministry said on Monday, citing data collated from vaccinations of the public rather than from an ongoing trial.
The comments followed a statement earlier on Monday by vaccine developers Pfizer Inc PFE.N and BioNTech BNTX.O, who said their experimental Covid-19 vaccine was more than 90% effective.
