Andre Caprin, the chief oncologist of the Russian Ministry of Health, said today that Sputnik V is the most effective vaccine against the corona virus, and can be used for cancer patients.

Caprin said during a press conference: I'm going to talk about Sputnik V, because it's the most effective vaccine that we offer cancer patients. Moreover, there are no inhibitors in Sputnik V's guidance, so we can certainly use it. "

The Senior Independent Oncologist of the Russian Ministry of Health added that many cancer patients, when visiting vaccination centres, did not reveal that they had cancer.
