Lavrov: Millions of people in Russia and abroad have taken root in "Sputnik V"

“If we take Sputnik, then the president cited figures, if we take Russian citizens abroad, 120 million people have already been vaccinated.

And no one, thank God, is observing any side effects, ”RIA Novosti quotes him.

Earlier, Russian President Vladimir Putin, during a meeting with the deputy director of the Gamaleya National Research Center for Epidemiology and Microbiology, Denis Logunov, said that more than 50 million Russians had already been vaccinated with the Sputnik V coronavirus vaccine, while in other countries there are about 120 million.
