The students and the staff can get free vaccination and re-vaccination with the Sputnik V vaccine at Saratov University. Due to the ending of the lockdown and low citizens vaccination rate, the level of collective immunity is decreasing. We remind you that the best way to combat the coronavirus is not to cure the disease, but to prevent it: to wear masks in public places, to wash hands, to avoid contacts with people with URTI symptoms and, of course, to get vaccinated.
Summer is the best time to strengthen your body. The abundance of sunlight and vitamins gives a lot of strength and energy, so it is better to take care of your immunity in the summer and get COVID-19 vaccine.
In June, a new outbreak of COVID-19 was recorded in Europe. Experts believe that the virus will “come” to Russia en masse in August. Now, the incidence rate has increased in 43 subjects of the Russian Federation, and those who go on vacation to other regions and countries will only increase the indicators, and the rise in incidence rate may be sharp. Despite the fact that the BA.4 and BA.5 South African strains of the coronavirus are considered less dangerous in terms of its severity morbidity, they are also the most contagious at the moment.
The weakening of the vaccine effect occurs after six months from the date of vaccination. During this period, it is better to re-vaccinate, since if a year or more has passed since the last vaccination, you will need to undergo a two-component vaccination course again.
