Roszdravnadzor has banned private clinics from vaccinating Russians with the Pfizer/BioNTech
COVID-19 vaccine
The supervisory authority declared the use of the Pfizer vaccine in Russia illegal; import of drugs that have not undergone state registration in the Russian Federation is prohibited. Therefore, Russians who signed up for vaccination with this American-German development on the
