amid concerns nations are cutting corners to win the vaccine race

Russian President Vladimir Putin on Tuesday claimed victory in the global race to find a coronavirus vaccine, and said his own daughter had been inoculated with the drug.

Russian authorities have approved, and are to begin mass-producing the substance — named Sputnik V after the iconic Russian satellite — developed by the Gamaleya Institute in Moscow, Russian state news agency TASS reported.

It will be made available first Russia's frontline public-service workers, such as medics and teachers, before being released to the general public, said Russian Health Minister Mikhail Murashko. Medics could have access to it as early as late August or early September, according to the agency.

Many experts have expressed reservations about the Gamaleya vaccine in recent days, however. It has not yet undergone phase-3 trials, which are considered essential to guarantee the safety of a vaccine.

Dr. Anthony Fauci, the top infectious-diseases expert in the US, is among those who have shared concerns about the fast-track process taken by countries, including Russia and China, in the race to produce a treatment.
