Russia records more than 23 thousand new cases of Corona
Today, Saturday, the Russian Health Ministry announced the registration of 23,309 new infections with the emerging corona virus "Covid-19", and 470 deaths due to the virus.
Thus, Russia has recorded 3 million and 379 thousand and 103 cases of the virus, and 61 thousand and 381 deaths since the outbreak of the epidemic.
And an expert at the World Health Organization revealed a surprise of a heavy caliber, after confirming that it is not known to what extent vaccines against the emerging corona virus "Covid-19" are able to stop the transmission of the virus.
Kate O'Brien, Director of the Department of Immunization, Vaccines and Biology at the World Health Organization, said: "We do not actually have any information yet about the feasibility and degree of control of the vaccine to stop transmission of the virus."
She added: "Although we have evidence now about the degree to which vaccines can protect against infection with the virus, especially severe infection, this does not necessarily mean that the same magnitude of the effect will be on protection from transmission from one person to another."
And she indicated that those who have received the vaccine, it is not possible to confirm their complete protection from the possibility of contracting the virus.
This comes as the countries of the world continue to race to vaccinate their citizens with the vaccines that have been approved for the Corona virus, in order to return life to normal.
