Of course EU/UK/USA consider it. But none of these vaccines have provided any trustworthy data of their efficacy and safety. And none of the makers of these vaccines even applied to be used in EU/UK/USA.

If today's publication changes that status for Sputnik V remains to be seen. Still many open questions.

Sputnik V is already in the EU approval pipeline: https://www.reuters.com/article/health-coronavirus-russia-va...

Any sources on that? AFAIK EU/UK/USA signed deals way before the western vaccines had any data too. Actually the Sanofi one even tanked.

[Ulrich2]

Sources for what?

Of course EU/UK/USA signed deals with their local companies first, just like China and Russia.

And in the case of China we have long history of problems with medical products.

[mrtksn]

That non of these vaccines provided scientific data.

Any sources on the "our long history of medical product problems with China and Russia"?
