Researchers Call for More Transparency from Russiaâs Sputnik COVID Vaccine “It is not a problem connected to “the Sputnik V” vaccine itself,” argues Prof. Enrico Bucci, adjunct professor in the Department of Biology, Temple University, and senior staff member of the Sbarro Health Research Organization (SHRO). “It is a problem connected to the way results are documented, data are provided, and scientific journals react to observations coming from the global researchers' community.” This is why the May 8th issue of the prestigious British Medical Journal featured a cover story revolving about the role of another prestigious journal, The Lancet, in promoting the clinical research purportedly documenting the safety and efficacy of the covid vaccine "Sputnik V".
