Oxfordvaccinet men där kör man ett icke-zoonotisk adenovirus från apor för att undgå ev. immunitet hos de vaccinerade. Frågan är dock om man blir immun mot vaccinet efter första dosen. Då kan man inte ge en booster-injektion. Så väldigt finurligt sätt av ryssarna att runda problemet med immunitet mot adenoviruset. Här är också
Science som reder ut vad egentligen har sagts och vilka beslut och tillstånd som getts:
Russia’s approval of a COVID-19 vaccine is less than meets the press release
In a startling and confusing move, Russia claimed today it had approved the world’s first COVID-19 vaccine, as the nation’s Ministry of Health issued what’s called a registration certificate for a vaccine candidate that has been tested in just 76 people. The certificate allows the vaccine, developed by the Gamaleya Research Institute of Epidemiology and Microbiology in Moscow, to be given to “a small number of citizens from vulnerable groups,” including medical staff and the elderly, a Ministry of Health spokesperson tells ScienceInsider. But the certificate stipulates that the vaccine cannot be used widely until 1 January 2021, presumably after larger clinical trials have been completed.

Så något godkännande har inte getts och fas III-tester återstår. Jag vill se en ordentlig provgenomgång med folk ur riskgrupperna innan jag säger bu eller bä.
I princip är ryssarna och Oxford jämsides. Hittade följande om Oxford på twitter.

so considerably further along than $PFE or $MRNA in their Ph 3 trials - but will the FDA grant an EUA to a vaccine that hasn't been tested in the U.S.?

important point on whether 'vaccinated' means they've taken the 1st or 2nd dose
