"As for the complications, which is the most important in the trials, only mild complications were identified," TASS quotes the doctor Alexis Garcia Pinera, who leads the vaccine research in Venezuela.

According to him, more than 200 volunteers received the first dose.

He noted that mild complications include headache, flu-like illness, or pain at the injection site.

Earlier it became known that the Ministry of Health of Paraguay registered the Russian vaccine against coronavirus "Sputnik V" as part of an accelerated procedure.
