Sputnik Light the mass immunization vaccine
More than a year after the declaration of the pandemic of the new Coronavirus, in equestrian terms, the race for a vaccine against Covid-19 is still in full swing, where governments and pharmaceutical competitors seek to compete to create the best and most effective vaccine to counteract the levels of contagions, deaths and to grant them political and economic capital.
The race to reach an effective vaccine against Covid-19 seems to have no place of arrival, this if we evaluate that governments, health institutions and pharmaceutical companies are competing with enormous interest in creating a vaccine against Covid-19 that can give a respite to the economy, to health and some normality to reestablish our usual lifestyles.
In this regard, countries such as the USA, China, Russia, India, among others, have been presenting projects whose initiatives generally come from economically strong private sectors in supposed alliances with prestigious academic universities and some prominent international research centers.

Some of the vaccines developed have not shown effectiveness, however, some still remain at the head of the race to combat the pandemic of the new Coronavirus, in this sense, it is important to mention that in recent weeks the race has focused on which vaccine presents greater immunization effectiveness.
However, among the vaccines with the highest immunization effectiveness is the Sputnik Light vaccine developed in Russia. According to tests carried out as part of Russia's mass vaccination program, Sputnik Light, with the application of a single dose, allows the immunization of a greater number of people in a shorter period of time.

Hi @lupafilotaxia
Achieving the effective vaccine has taken a long time, if we add to this the delays in distribution, and the economic power that prevails and makes the vaccines go to some countries mainly before another, makes me think that this pandemic now is that it has much more time left.
The speed with which Russia made this vaccine, its relationship with China, among other things make me have thoughts contrary to the fact that they are really looking to help the world. Because after all of this, those countries have been greatly strengthened.
Hi @josevas217
I think the reason why it has taken a long time to develop an effective vaccine, is because the states have paid little to no attention to the scientific community, the pandemic was taken as a political issue, and there is the mistake.
Best regards, be well.

The vaccine race is going, and unfortunately, it is hard to know how much is reality and how much is politics when it comes to which vaccines they accept in the EU. But, based on what I have read, the Russian Sputnik vaccine definitely sounds like a good one, and I do know quite a people who have received this :)
We are all part of a big testing project, and I have friends who have received AstraZeneca, Pfizer, Moderna, Sinopharm, and SPutnik... so now I will just thave to enjoy the show and check out on the side-effects! :)
Btw, I have received two shots of Moderna myself already!
Hello friend @unbiasedwriter
Forgive me for asking this question, how did your body react within days after getting the MODERN vaccine, I have heard that the side effects are not favorable at all.
Best regards, be well.
Sorry my friend, I forgot to answer! :) Absolutely okay that you ask the question, I always ask it myself to everyone I speak with who have had a vaccine.
After the first vaccine, I had no trouble at all.. the arm was a little bit painful, but not much at all, and I was a little bit more tired than normally.
After the second I had some light fever in the evening/night, and I had a very relaxed day the second day, lying mostly in bed and thinking about what to write about on Steemit in my next post! :)
