The president of Argentina has just been diagnosed with Covid, with mild symptoms, after being vaccinated with both doses of Sputnik for over a month or two.
- m0llusk 6y agoThere is speculation that Argentina may have failed to keep Sputnik V cold enough during distribution, so it is quite possible that the president and others recently vaccinated received degraded vaccine.

- mrkramer 6y agoSo how we should know is vaccine good or is it degraded? Any way of testing? Not all batches should or could be tested but you could do random sample testing.
- sz4kerto 6y agoCompletely expected. That's why the efficacy is not 100%. We have people in hospital after 2 rounds of Pfizer.
