A friend of mine was vaccinated against Sputnik-V coronavirus.
According to him, this is a difficult test for the body. The vaccine is perceived as a foreign substance. For two or three days his arm was very sore. He was drenched in sweat. However, then these symptoms disappeared. For this, the second injection is much worse tolerated by the vaccinated than the first.
Many Russians are skeptical about the use of the vaccine.
This applies not only to Sputnik-V, but in general to any vaccine developed in the world.
I see. So, the vaccine had an immediate short term side effect.
We, in our country has not have the vaccine yet. But do they run an allergy test before injecting the vaccine into your body?
Or that's a normal reaction your friend have experienced after taking the vaccine? And, is taking the vaccines compulsory in your country?
I'm sorry If I'm asking these questions, Im just a bit worried about it's short and long term effect to a human body especially with senior citizens and children.
Any vaccine is dangerous to do if a person has chronic diseases. Most people in Russia over 55 have chronic diseases, so no one can predict side effects.
Before the vaccination, you sign a special agreement, and if something happens to you after the vaccination, then the medical institution that gave you the vaccine will not be responsible for this.
As far as I know, children are not given the vaccine. Friends were sick with coronavirus, and their children had symptoms of mild colds.
Maybe it's good that there is no vaccine in your country, because it has not yet been tested.
