There is a lot of information at the moment, and against this background and speculation begins with it. Anti-vaccine people are active in social networks, who mislead people. However, it should be understood that before using the vaccine, it was massively tested in laboratory conditions and made sure that it is safe. Regarding the side effects, one should understand that even ordinary drugs have them.
The Ministry of Health declared on Thursday that the COVID-19 vaccination will be started in Kyrgyzstan on March 29.
The Central Asian received 150,000 doses of Chinese vaccine free of charge on March 19. The first batch of the Sinopharm vaccine, delivered to Kyrgyzstan from China, was produced by China Biotekchnology Co LTD. The ministry said that the Sinopharm vaccine is an inactivated vaccine (a pathogenic virus or bacterium is used in the creation of a vaccine, or microorganisms very similar to them, which inactivate (kill) with the help of chemical reagents, heat. This method is based on technologies that, as it has been proven, they effectively protect humans, they are used for the manufacture of vaccines against influenza and poliomyelitis and allows for a fairly large-scale production of vaccines). The dossier has been accepted by WHO for consideration, a decision is expected in March, for inclusion in the WHO list during an emergency.
This vaccine is being used in China, the United Arab Emirates, Turkey, Uzbekistan, Bahrain. More than 3 million people have been vaccinated worldwide. No side effects have been reported after immunization with the Sinopharm vaccine. The shelf life of the vaccine is 3 years, the storage temperature is + 2 + 8 degrees. Our cold chain allows the use and storage of this vaccine. The vaccination is twofold with an interval of 25-28 days. The Ministry of Health and Social Development of the Kyrgyz Republic plans to start the first stage of vaccination on March 29, , after receiving and considering the registration dossier and receiving the recommendation of the STGEI (Scientific and Technical Group of Immunization Experts), the Ministry of Health said.
To date, the preparation of medical personnel for vaccination of the population has begun, trainings and various educational events are being held in all regions of the republic. It is reported that first of all, vaccination will begin in Bishkek, Osh and Chui Oblast. After the so-called pilot vaccination ends, the number of vaccination sites will increase.
In addition, it is reported that the first to receive the vaccine will be doctors, teachers, law enforcement officers, people with chronic diseases and those who are at risk. Vaccination will be voluntary.
The vaccine from China is one of many vaccines. Kyrgyzstan is expecting to receive the Russian Sputnik V vaccine in the near future. To date, more than 8 million people have been vaccinated in Russia, more than 2 million people have been fully vaccinated. In addition, today the press secretary of the Russian president said that Vladimir Putin had also been vaccinated.
A resident of Moscow, Mikhail, spoke about receiving the Sputnik V vaccination among the common population. He shared how the instruction is going on in the clinic, what side effects he experienced and spoke in general about the situation with the coronavirus in the Russian capital.
“I had doubts about whether to get the vaccine or not for a long time. I had some doubts that the vaccine was produced quickly enough. However, I read a lot on this topic, talked with familiar experts and I was convinced that, in general, all publications are true. Later, I learned that my stepfather was a participant in the clinical trials. I also came across a publication where people reported that antibodies are really appeared after vaccination. Putting all the knowledge together, I made the decision to get the vaccine. I registered through the portal of public services,” Mikhail said.
Mikhail said that a questionnaire was filled out before the vaccination. Doctors gathered in the hospital groups of 5 people, after which they took out the vaccine from the freezer. Immediately before the vaccination itself, the doctors gave instructions on side effects and various little things, for example, that on the first day the injection site should not be wetted.
“I was given a brochure indicating what side effects might be. In addition, they gave me a card that I had been vaccinated and immediately registered for the second dose. The first 12 hours after vaccination, everything was fine with me. Later I woke up in the middle of the night and felt a lump in my body, like during the flu. I realized that the vaccine had worked. There was a temperature of 37.5 and it lasted for several days. Then I went to get the second dose of the vaccine. The situation was similar to the first one, at first everything was fine, but closer to 11 o'clock in the evening I was weak and had chill. The temperature rose to 38 degrees. I felt bad enough all night. The weakness lasted for about 2 days. Then everything became normal. Now in Moscow there is a tendency that people see that nothing terrible happens after vaccination and go for vaccination, initially many were skeptical. I would like to note that after the start of vaccination in Moscow, the statistics began to decline,” added Mikhail.
