OREANDA-NEWS. According to the head of the department of the First State Medical University. Sechenov, virologist Vitaly Zverev, too frequent revaccination can harm the body.

The scientist believes that it is possible to re-vaccinate after being vaccinated against COVID-19 with the Russian drugs Sputnik V and Sputnik Light no earlier than 4 months later.

Zverev recalled the possibility of negative consequences for the body in those who do not want to withstand the time recommended by experts between vaccinations.

“It must be borne in mind that there may be negative consequences if the interval recommended by scientists is not maintained. For our vaccines, including Sputnik, this is six months. In general, you can safely revaccinate after 3-4 months, but not earlier, ”Zverev said in an interview with Izvestia.

The expert said that the recommendations of Western doctors in terms of the frequency of revaccination are similar - if you get vaccinated too often, the risk of getting myocarditis increases, Zverev said, referring to Israeli studies.

Earlier, doctor Tatyana Ruzhentsova told how children are infected with "omicron". Between 17 and 40% of children with coronavirus are asymptomatic, she added.
