Belarus to launch industrial production of Sputnik V at the end of March

“On February 26, the first batch was released - 15 thousand ampoules, which are now at the Institute.

Gamaleas undergo an examination for sustainability, efficiency, etc.

And from March 30-31 we will already start producing the vaccine.

According to the plan - 500 thousand doses per month.

These are quite large volumes, ”BelTA quotes him.

As noted by Cherednichenko, the main goal at the moment is to saturate the Belarusian market with vaccines and vaccinate citizens of Belarus.

“When there is an opportunity to export the vaccine, we will supply it abroad.

In particular, this is stipulated by the agreement, ”he added.

Earlier it was reported that Belarus plans to start mass vaccination against COVID-19 in April.
