Russia says it will start mass-producing its coronavirus vaccine next month

as scientists say developers rushed through tests and injected themselves to shorten human trials

Russia says it will start mass-producing its coronavirus vaccine next month, despite widespread reports that scientists rushed through tests and injected themselves with the prototype to speed up the process.

More than 100 vaccines are being developed around the world, but only four — from Moderna, AstraZeneca, SinoVac, and Pfizer — have entered phase-3 mass human trials, according to the World Health Organization (WHO).

Now Russia claims that a Russian vaccine will be first to hit the market and administered to a population. The WHO currently recognizes two Russian vaccine trials, but says they are both still in phase 2 trials.

"We are very much counting on starting mass production in September," Russian trade minister Denis Manturov told the state-run TASS news agency on Monday, referring to a vaccine developed by the Gamaleya National Research Center of Epidemiology and Microbiology.
