Sputnik V vaccine has been developed by the Gamaleya National Research Center of Epidemiology and Microbiology and Russian Direct Investment Fund (RDIF). As per information, India has purchased 100 million doses of the candidate from Russia. Dr. S K Raut, Head of Clinical Research Department of Noble Hospital said that Seventeen healthy volunteers were administered Sputnik V vaccine in the last three days as part of human trials.

The selection of the volunteers was done as per the laid-down norms as they need to be healthy, doctors said.
