She noted that those who become ill after vaccination after the 42nd day are taken into account, since this is "the period when immunity has already been formed, when, in theory, the patient should not get sick."

“No more than 2% of all cases are people who have been vaccinated,” TASS quotes her as saying.

According to Samoilova, 90% of those hospitalized with COVID-19 are unvaccinated patients.

Also, the head of Roszdravnadzor said that no information was recorded in Russia indicating problems with the safety of vaccines against coronavirus infection.

Director of the Research Center for Epidemiology and Microbiology named after Gamaleya Alexander Gintsburg, in an interview with the NSN, told how herd immunity is formed.
