“Uzbekistan is studying vaccines produced in Russia and China” – Member of the Anti-Coronavirus Staff

“Currently, research is being conducted on vaccines produced in Russia and China. Today, Chinese and Uzbek experts exchanged views via videoconference on the process of using the vaccine produced in China. Based on the results of these negotiations, we will inform the government about the level of vaccine use in the country,” Rustam Ikramov, a member of the Anti-Coronavirus Staff, said.

He also commented on the effectiveness of the Chinese anti-coronavirus medicine Lianhua Qinwen.

“This medicine was donated to Uzbekistan by China. It has been studied in our country on the basis of relevant norms and the necessary conclusions have been drawn on the active ingredients in its composition. The medicine is currently being used to treat coronavirus patients at the hospital in Zangiota,” Kun.uz correspondent quoted Ikramov as saying.
