Earlier, he noted that the effectiveness of the Russian Sputnik V vaccine against the omicron strain of coronavirus is about 75 percent.
If a person has been re-vaccinated with Sputnik Light, then protection against the omicron strain will be one hundred percent, Gunzburg explained.
According to him, the effectiveness of Sputnik V among citizens who had not been re-vaccinated six months later was approximately 56-57 percent.
He emphasized that the Gamaleya Research Center for Epidemiology and Microbiology had developed a test system for detecting virus-neutralizing antibodies to omicron.
