RUDN University scientists and students about vaccination
The students heard the opinions of experts from different fields of sciences on the main issues of the COVID-19 pandemic and were able to ask questions on the topics of each of the reports.
What have you learned?
Plenary session
Found out:
- More than 34,000 people took part in the Sputnik V vaccine study — one of the largest studies in world practice;
- 5 translation students of the RUDN Medical Institute helped the Moscow City Center for AIDS Prevention and Control in the first months of the pandemic;
- 23 vaccines have already been approved in the world.
Understood:
- the safety of adenovirus-based vector vaccines is well studied;
- vaccination is the only way to stop the epidemic;
- to date, collective immunity is 45.7%, and if vaccination is not carried out, the country may lose more than 2 million people.
Section "Mental health — new conditions of interaction, work, study"
Found out:
- "truckers" are people with long-term post-ovoid syndrome who, even after six months, could not return to their previous lifestyle;
- from 10 to 50% of those who have had COVID-19 become "truckers";
- signs of a healthy personality: goals (meaningfulness) - immersion in activity; people (communication) - proactivity; temporary competence — not "introspection", but concentration on opportunities.
Understood:
- the peculiarity of the new coronavirus infection is multitropism - the virus affects many organs and systems of the human body;
- the incidence of postcovid syndrome is 30-35%;
- with COVID-19, there is a risk of psychogenic diseases.
Section "Student volunteers on the front line: firsthand"
Found out:
- more than 10 thousand volunteers took part in the campaign "Vaccination Assistants";
- The RUDN Volunteer Center processed 1,169 orders;
- RUDN volunteers helped students and teachers in the transition to a remote mode of study and work.
