trials of Sputnik V and distribute the vaccine in India.<\/p>\n<p> In April 2021, the DCGI granted approval to the two-dose Sputnik V vaccine for restricted use in emergency situation in

approval to the DCGI in December 2021, in addition to data from clinical trials in Russia.<\/p>\n<p> The standalone Sputnik Light vaccine is the latest vaccine to be approved by the DCGI as part of India&#8217;s national inoculation effort against COVID-19.<\/p>\n<p> Sputnik Light has been approved in over 30 countries around the world including Argentina, UAE, Philippines and Russia.<\/p>\n<p> Earlier this year, an independent comparative study conducted by the Spallanzani Institute in Italy showed that Sputnik V demonstrates strong protection against the Omicron variant, with over two times higher virus neutralising activity compared to the Pfizer vaccine.<\/p>\n<p> The data supports the results of the recent laboratory study by the Gamaleya Center demonstrating that Sputnik V induces robust neutralising antibody response to the Omicron variant, further strengthened by Sputnik Light as a booster.<\/p>\n<p> In a separate statement, RDIF CEO Kirill Dmitriev stated that the authorisation of Sputnik Light in India is another major step in successful cooperation between Russia and India in the fight against COVID.<\/p><div class=\"trade-content-10\"
