Medvedev called the creation of a cure for COVID a breakthrough worthy of the Nobel Prize

“If you manage to create, for example, a cure for coronavirus or something like that, well, this is definitely a Nobel Prize, in my opinion.

And it would really be a very serious breakthrough, ”RIA Novosti quotes Medvedev.

He also stated the need for mutual recognition of COVID-19 vaccines.

“I believe that any country that produces a vaccine, even if it is not very strong, even if it does not provide highly effective protection, has the right to receive registration with the WHO,” Medvedev concluded.

Earlier, Russian President Vladimir Putin recalled that the process of mutual recognition of vaccines and vaccination certificates has not yet been completed between Russia and the European Union against the backdrop of the coronavirus pandemic.
