[ George Galloway ] Sputnik V has illuminated the world just like its namesake,

00:00:09.000 --> 00:00:15.000
the original Sputnik, the first craft ever to leave the Earth’s

00:00:16.000 --> 00:00:19.000
atmosphere and orbit the world.

00:00:20.110 --> 00:00:22.110
[ Doctor ] Say 'Ah!'

00:00:22.120 --> 00:00:25.200
[ Konstantin Rozhkov ] You're not afraid of the Covid vaccine? 
[ Patient ] - I am.

00:00:25.220 --> 00:00:29.070
[ Maria Finoshina ] I'm testing a new vaccine on myself.

00:00:30.060 --> 00:00:31.190
[ Doctor ] Hold still please.

00:00:32.000 --> 00:00:34.000
[ Konstantin Rozhkov ]All right, this is happening. [ Konstantin ] Here we go.

00:00:35.000 --> 00:00:40.000
[ George Galloway ] And the reaction has been exactly 
the same as it was way back then.

00:00:40.000 --> 00:00:44.000
[ George ] Churlishness, jealousness. 

00:00:45.000 --> 00:00:47.000
[ George ] The world reaction is made of green cheese.

00:00:47.070 --> 00:00:48.180
[ Andrey Medvedev ] It's fake!

00:00:51.010 --> 00:00:55.090
[ Andrey ] Some refuse to believe 
Russians can invent something first,

00:00:55.100 --> 00:00:57.150
but this happens sometimes.

00:00:57.160 --> 00:00:59.090

Our foreign colleagues, who, apparently, 
feeling a certain sense of competition,

of the Russian preparation,

Russia is readying for phase 3 of 
clinical trials of its covid 19 vaccine.
00:02:30 00:02:34
[ Neil ] International medical 
journal says sputnik- v drug
00:02:34 00:02:37
produced an antibody response 
in all participants of early
00:02:38 00:02:41
testing and that they were 
no major side-effects.
00:02:48 00:02:50
[ VO ] With the death toll from Covid 19 
still rising and a second wave
00:02:50 00:02:54
already starting in many countries 
the race to put a vaccine 
on the market is intensifying. 
00:02:54 00:02:59
[ VO ] It usually takes years to develop
and test a vaccine but time is 
something we don’t have right now
00:03:04 00:03:07
that’s why countries are coming 
together, using past experience
00:03:08 00:03:10
and billions of dollars to try 
and shorten that timeline.

00:03:11.110 --> 00:03:13.200
[ Patient ] Firstly, you want to be healthy.

00:03:14.000 --> 00:03:18.000

currently in development but

00:03:18.000 --> 00:03:20.000

became the first registered

[ Vladimir Chirakhov president and CEO of sistema PJSFC ] 
For a moment our company Binnopharm 

00:03:40.000 --> 00:03:43.000
is the only producer of the 
vaccine apart from the Gamaleya Institute.

00:03:43.000 --> 00:03:47.000
[ Vladimir ] The production 
of the vaccine has already

00:03:43.000 --> 00:03:51.000
been launched with a manufacturing 
capacity of about 1.5 million dozes a year.
00:03:52:00 00:03:55:00
[ Vladimir ] We understand that it 
won’t be enough that’s why
00:03:55:00 00:03:59:00
we continue to invest in boosting 
production. 

00:03:59.000 --> 00:04:02.000

 is ready to be delivered 
to the regions. 

00:04:02.000 --> 00:04:05.000

 [ Donald ] The factories head mechanic - was able
to tell us a bit more about 
what exactly takes place here.

00:04:28.000 --> 00:04:31.000
[ Andrey Aleshkin director for biotechnology development, binnopharm, sistema group ] It’s absolutely accurate that 
pecific antibodies, protective

00:04:32.000 --> 00:04:35.000
antibodies are being formed 
as an answer to the vaccination.

00:04:35.000 --> 00:04:37.000
[ Andrey ] We can also say that for the time 
volunteers that have been

00:04:38.000 --> 00:04:40.000
injected with this vaccine, t
he number of antibodies has been

00:04:40.000 --> 00:04:44.000
sufficient and remain circulating
in their blood, protecting them.

The sheer speed at which Russian 
scientists have been able

00:04:49.000 --> 00:04:52.000
to develop the vaccine has raised a lot of 
eyebrows across the world.

00:04:53.000 --> 00:04:56.000
[ Donald ] Especially since Russia’s 
Health Ministry approved it –

00:04:49.000 --> 00:05:00.000
before the end of the 3rd phase of testing.

00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:04.000
[ Donald ] Still all the initial
testing phases were done without 
any problems and the management

00:05:04.000 --> 00:05:07.000
of this factory seems to have
 a very positive outlook.

00:05:07.000 --> 00:05:10.000
[ VO ] The initial phases include 
a pre-clinical round, when

00:05:11.000 --> 00:05:14.000
researchers test a vaccine on 
cells and give it to animals, like
00:05:14:00 00:05:17:00
mice or monkeys, to see if it 
triggers an immune response.

00:05:18.000 --> 00:05:21.000
[ VO ] Then there are three clinical 
phases of testing on humans.
00:05:21:00 00:05:25:00
[ VO ] Phase 1 tests response from the 
immune system and safety.

00:05:25.000 --> 00:05:28.000
[ VO ] Phase 2 provides more data on 
the vaccine's safety and the right dosage.

00:05:28.000 --> 00:05:32.000
[ VO ] Phase 3 confirms the 
vaccine's safety and efficacy and

00:05:33.000 --> 00:05:37.000
identifies rare side effects. 
[ VO ] It also includes a control group

00:05:37.000 --> 00:05:41.000
that is given a placebo.

It'll all happen within the next 30 minutes

It’s vaccination day for me, finally. 
This morning I got a call

00:06:39.000 --> 00:06:43.000
from the clinic, saying I am 
an ideal candidate. Before that I

00:06:39.000 --> 00:06:45.000
of course took a number of tests 
and went through a thorough screening.

00:06:46.000 --> 00:06:99.000

re stored in a freezer. 

00:06:49.000 --> 00:06:52.000
[ Maria ] They take out each dose immediately 
before the injection. 

00:06:53.000 --> 00:06:57.000
[ Maria ] Each vaccine is individually allocated. 
Every patient has a specific code,

00:06:57.000 --> 00:07:01.000
and each shot has this code 
marked on it, meaning it’s assigned

00:07:01.000 --> 00:07:05.000
to a particular patient. 
I’ve been asked many times whether I
00:07:05:00 00:07:08:00
am afraid to be vaccinated. 
00:07:09:00  00:07:13:00

So, I’m about to make the injection.
Ok, I’m ready

00:07:19.000 --> 00:07:22.000
[ Maria ] What did it feel like? 
Like a normal shot.

00:07:22.000 --> 00:07:25.000
[ Maria ] Like a mosquito bite as 
I usually tell my daughter.

00:07:25.000 --> 00:07:28.000

the platform, or vessel you're
using to get the virus' DNA into

00:09:53.000 --> 00:09:56.000

triggers an immune response.

00:09:57.000 --> 00:10:00.000

needs to know that something 
has been tested for years before I

00:10:26.000 --> 00:10:29.000
give it a try especially when 
it has to do with my health.

00:10:30.000 --> 00:10:33.000
But that’s not the case with 
the volunteers we’ve seen like

00:10:33.000 --> 00:10:36.000
Andrei Medvedev a local 
Journalist and politician.

00:10:36.200 --> 00:10:38.190
[ Andrey russian journalist, moscow city duma deputy ] Why do you need to do this?

00:10:38.200 --> 00:10:42.080
[ Andrey ] Let them test it thoroughly 
first and then do it

00:10:42.100 --> 00:10:46.030
[ Andrey ] And what about risk, 
interest, and courage?

00:10:48.020 --> 00:10:50.120
[ Andrey ] A sense of duty?

00:10:50.140 --> 00:10:53.000
[ Andrey ]What would we know 
about our world

00:10:53.010 --> 00:10:58.000
if it weren't for pioneers 
who boarded their wooden ships and set sail?

00:11:02.000 --> 00:11:05.000
[ VO ] Andrey has covered many wars 
in his time as a correspondent so

00:11:06.000 --> 00:11:09.000
naturally there’s not a lot that scares 
him anymore. [ VO ] That’s why

00:11:09.000 --> 00:11:13.000
he decided to get vaccinated 
and show others that it’s safe.

00:11:13.070 --> 00:11:18.080
[ Andrey Medvedev ] 
If my example will convince 
some doubters that:

00:11:18.090 --> 00:11:21.200
[ Andrey ] 'Look guys, it's OK! 
[ Andrey ] It works, it won't hurt you

00:11:21.210 --> 00:11:25.100
[ Andrey ] I didn't grow a tail or scales or horns'

00:11:25.140 --> 00:11:31.160
[ Andrey ] A government vaccine that Putin advertised, 
but that never crossed my mind afterwards
00:11:26:00
ANDREY MEDVEDEV
RUSSIAN JOURNALIST, MOSCOW CITY DUMA DEPUTY

00:11:33.030 --> 00:11:39.190
[ VO ] The American actor Adrian Brody said he'd 
received the vaccine in America, on Long Island,

00:11:39.200 --> 00:11:43.040
and joked on Instagram 
that he now speaks Russian

00:11:43.050 --> 00:11:47.220
[ Andrey ] That he's hunting bears... [ Andrey ] Yes, I saw it, that he's bear hunting now

00:11:47.230 --> 00:11:50.090
[ Andrey ] Judging from the debate

00:11:50.100 --> 00:11:52.190
between the 2 US presidential candidates,

00:11:52.220 --> 00:11:58.130
it seems like they both took a bad vaccine and now have voices in their heads 

00:11:59.000 --> 00:12:02.000
[ VO ] To be honest I was most surprised 
when I heard that foreigners

00:12:02.000 --> 00:12:06.000
wanted to take part in the trials 
and the first foreign

00:12:06.000 --> 00:12:10.000
nationals to give it a go here 
in Russia were RT employees.

00:12:13.000 --> 00:12:16.000
[ Carlos Moraga Gonzalez Isaias RT spanish editor ]
Many tried to dissuade me. 
[ Carlos ] They said that it’s not worth

00:12:13.000 --> 00:12:18.000
getting vaccinated, as the risks are too high.

RUSSIA’S COVID VACCINE HAS GLOBAL AMBITIONS
00:12:20:00
THESE ARE THE FIRST FOREIGNERS TO RECEIVE THE JAB

00:12:20.000 --> 00:12:24.000
[ Yasmin Mussus RT arabic host ] 
I considered all the possible 
scenarios that may occur after

00:12:24.000 --> 00:12:27.000
having the vaccine but 
decided to take part in its trial.

ALL NEED TO PASS BASIC MEDICAL TESTS

IN 21 DAYS, THEY WILL GET A SECOND AND FINAL DOSE

00:12:28.000 --> 00:12:28:0000:12:32:000
[ Mohammed Mustafa Saleh RT arabic website ] 
Antibodies will arrive through the vaccine. 
[ Mohammed ] And only by this
00:12:32:00 00:12:35:00
way will we be able to 
overcome the coronavirus

FINGERS CROSSED, A COVID CURE IS ALMOST HERE

00:12:36.000 --> 00:12:39.000
[ Yasmin Mussus ] It is necessary that there 
are people who conduct such

00:12:39.000 --> 00:12:42.000
experiments and analysis so 
that we move forward towards

00:12:42.000 --> 00:12:46.000
obtaining the vaccine that 
will be the most reliable for all

00:12:47.000 --> 00:12:49.000
[ Carlos Moraga Gonzalez Isaias ] 
If more people test the vaccine, we will know

00:12:49.000 --> 00:12:51.000
faster whether it works or not.
00:12:48:00
CARLOS MORAGA GONZALEZ ISAIAS
RT SPANISH EDITOR

00:12:54.000 --> 00:12:57.000
[ VO ] Three weeks later all our 
volunteers received the second and

00:12:57.000 --> 00:13:03.000
final dose of the vaccine. 
So far no one reported any major

00:13:03.000 --> 00:13:07.000
side-effects so more people 
are queuing up to get the jab

00:13:03.000 --> 00:13:10.000
in Moscow including more 
foreigners like our very

00:13:10.000 --> 00:13:13.000
own American presenter Peter Lavelle.

00:13:14.000 --> 00:13:17.000
[ VO ] All we can do is wait 
and see just how effective Sputnik V
00:13:17:00 00:13:20:00
really is because it's still 
in phase 3 of clinical trials 
and nothing is certain.

00:13:21.000 --> 00:13:24.000
[ VO ] But it’s thanks 
to fearless volunteers like

00:13:24.000 --> 00:13:28.000
these that we have a chance 
of finding out and potentially

00:13:28.000 --> 00:13:32.000
taking us one step closer 
to beating Covid-19 which is,

00:13:32.000 --> 00:13:34.000
once again, shutting down our world.
