Virologist Timakov: booster vaccination with another drug against COVID-19 will give a greater effect platform can give great protection. This assessment was given by the doctor-virologist Evgeny Timakov on the air of the YouTube channel “Soloviev Live”.
According to the Russian virologist, various scientific data show that re-vaccination is possible with completely different drugs, and their effectiveness must be proven .
“If we vaccinate with one vaccine in Russia, then another platform can be made abroad. If Russia has made Sputnik V, then you can also revaccinate with the same platform – Sputnik Light, ”Timakov said and added that the combinations for revaccination are diverse.
The virologist noted that one vaccination protects no more than six months, and may not save you from the disease, so you need to be vaccinated again. You will also need an injection some time after COVID-19.
Earlier, Timakov said that any Russian vaccine can be vaccinated against COVID-19 again, but he called Sputnik V the most effective, as it prevents a severe course disease, death and the disease itself.
