When I met people who worked in my immediate circle and, unfortunately, got sick, I was likely to be infected with the coronavirus. However, as our experts say, thanks to the protection provided by our Sputnik V vaccine, I did not get the virus. But it's not just about me.

Axar.az reports that the statement came from Russian President Vladimir Putin.

"When I go somewhere, more than 100 people go with me. The press service, security guards, drivers, protocol, etc. There are many people who risk their lives in one way or another. There are things to consider in this regard," Putin said.
