Gunzburg: COVID-19 will be overcome in a few months with an increase in the number of vaccinated
coronavirus in Russia can be overcome in a few months if the number of people vaccinated daily increases sharply. He stated this in an interview with Izvestia.
Gunzburg noted that restrictive measures in themselves are practically useless. The head of the center explained that they must be combined with a sharp increase in the number of vaccinated against COVID-19. So, he recalled that Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin announced a fourfold increase in the number of people vaccinated per day over the past 10 days. At the same time, according to him, this number must increase 10 times so that the disease can be overcome in a few months.
Earlier, Gunzburg disclosed the level of antibodies sufficient to protect against coronavirus. Gunzburg noted that, according to a study by the Gamaleya Center, conducted jointly with the Moscow Department of Health, 300 antibodies in international units fully protect against the delta strain of COVID-19. According to him, if a person has less, then he should be vaccinated with Sputnik Light. The head of the center also added that if after vaccination with “Light” the patient has only 350-400 units of antibodies, then it is worth being vaccinated with the second component of “Sputnik V”. “If you have 500 units or more, then this is ideal for protection against COVID-19 infection,” he summed up.
