As the Ministry of Innovative Development reported, during clinical trials of the ZF-UZ-VAC2001 vaccine in Uzbekistan, there were no serious side effects and deaths after receiving the vaccine.

In addition, the percentage of minor side effects such as fever, headache and redness at the injection site was less than 0.003%.

It should be recalled that earlier the First Deputy Minister of Innovative Development of Uzbekistan Shakhlo Turdikulova named the side effects of the Uzbek-Chinese vaccine against COVID-19.

“Analyzes and studies show that the vaccine is absolutely safe and the person who received this vaccine produces 95-97% of antibodies,” she said during the AIMC briefing.

According to her, the Uzbek-Chinese vaccine ZF-UZ-VAC 2001 has several unpleasant, but harmless side effects.

“There may be allergic reactions, the injection site may turn red, but this is not to be feared. Body temperature can rise up to 37 degrees. Everything will pass in 2-3 days,” the expert noted.

She also added that none of the 7,000 volunteers who took part in the study had side effects.
