Tehran [Iran], February 9 (ANI/Sputnik): Iran embarked on the coronavirus immunization campaign on Tuesday with the rollout of the Russian-made Sputnik V vaccine.
In a broadcast address, President Hassan Rouhani signaled the start of the campaign. The health minister's son was among those who received the first shots.
Russia's Sputnik V is the first foreign-made vaccine to arrive in Iran. The Islamic republic is also working to develop own vaccines.
