In RUSSIA , there are few vaccinated and those who have been ill who have retained antibodies, so COVID-19 will spread even faster, Anna Speranskaya, HEAD of the group of genomics and genomic technologies at the Central Research Institute of Epidemiology of Rospotrebnadzor, believes .

“We don't have many vaccinated people. The proportion of recovered patients who still have antibodies is small. This means that the virus will spread even faster, it will be easier for it to spread,” she said on the air of the Russia 1 TV channel.

According to Speranskaya, "the only normal salvation" in the current situation is to vaccinate a sufficient number of citizens so that new strains of CORONAVIRUS "do not get the opportunity to spread rapidly."

According to the head of the Center Gamaleya Alexander Gintsburg, the disease when infected with an "evil" Indian strain proceeds "more lightning fast". Also, this option leads to re-infection of those who have already been ill and those who have been vaccinated for a long time, said Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin. “You need twice the level of immunity to protect yourself from the Indian strain compared to the Wuhan strain,” he said. In this regard, the Moscow authorities are working on launching revaccination so that residents can raise the level of antibodies with the help of re-vaccination.
