Russia's Putin Says He Hasn't Had Covid Vaccine Yet Because He's Too Old

[perugu_vada]

Speaking at his annual December press conference Thursday, Putin encouraged Russians to take the vaccine, called "Sputnik V," and said he would receive it as soon as he was able to.

 

"Our health care professionals say the vaccines ... are meant for people of certain ages ... people like me are not yet allowed to take vaccines. I am a law-abiding citizen and I always listen to what our health-care professionals say, therefore I haven't been inoculated yet, but I will surely do that as soon as it is permitted."

"Our vaccine is effective, and it's safe, so I see no reason why we should be afraid of getting a shot," he said, adding that Russia's priority was to vaccinate its own citizens and that it would be building up its production capacity to do so

Sputnik V has been tested on volunteers ages 18-60 and thus it is recommended only for people between in that age group. Because Putin is 68, he does not qualify.
