Indonesian Health Minister Budi Gunadi has sent a team to study the Russian cancer vaccine and whether Indonesia could be a suitable location for clinical trials, reports the Indonesian portal Tempo.
Previously, the head of Russia's Federal Medical-Biological Agency, Veronika Skvortsova, stated that a vaccine against oncological diseases is ready in Russia, has successfully passed pre-clinical trials, and is ready for use.
According to the publication, the Indonesian Ministry of Health quickly responded to the launch of the new cancer vaccine developed by Russian scientists. Health Minister Budi Gunadi stated that he had contacted the company manufacturing the vaccine.
