In Moscow, the capital of Russia, large-scale vaccination with a domestic vaccine for the new coronavirus is being carried out, including people over the age of 60.
In response to this, 68-year-old President Putin is also interested in vaccination.
In Russia, more than 25,000 new cases of new coronavirus infection are confirmed every day, and the number of people infected so far has exceeded 3 million.
In the capital Moscow, large-scale inoculation of the domestic vaccine "Sputnik V" has been carried out for medical personnel from the 5th of this month, but from the 28th, the target has been greatly expanded to include other occupations. ..
Since this time, people over the age of 60 were also targeted, so elderly people also visited the medical facility in Moscow for vaccination, and women in their 60s said to NHK, "I was waiting for vaccination. If a person receives it, the infection will subside. "
Putin said he was refraining from vaccination because of his age of 68, but on the 26th of this month, health officials allowed people over the age of 60 to get the vaccine, and Putin said. I am also interested in whether to inoculate.
In Russia, two domestic vaccines including Sputnik V have been approved, but in the pollster conducted this month, 60% of the people said that "all clinical trials have not been completed" and "afraid of side reactions". In reality, many people question the safety and efficacy of vaccines, such as answering "no vaccination".
