One of the centers for post-registration studies of a vaccine against coronavirus has opened in Zelenograd

One of the city centers, where post-registration studies of the vaccine against COVID-19 are being carried out, began work on the basis of the outpatient department of the Zelenograd hospital. The head physician of the medical institution Irina Yarotskaya wrote about this on her Facebook page.

According to her, the first volunteers who decided to take part in the program are already undergoing screening and vaccination. The clinic has a clear route for them.

- The research center is located on the second floor. Our leading experts work here. They explain in detail the conditions of vaccination to each volunteer. It is important that all participants feel confident and comfortable. For 180 days, together with the doctors, they will do one big thing! The vaccine has been proven safe in two stages of clinical trials. Once it successfully passes the final test, it can be used more widely, including for the elderly.

- Before vaccination, volunteers must be examined. If screening results permit, participants are invited for the first vaccination. After 21 days, they will come for a re-vaccination. From the very first minutes after the introduction of the vaccine, doctors are constantly in touch with volunteers - by phone, through a special mobile application or using telemedicine technologies, - wrote Irina Yarotskaya.
