Moscow. December 1st. INTERFAX - The anti-covid measures taken will protect Russian cosmonauts from the new strain of the Omicron coronavirus, the Cosmonaut Training Center told Interfax on Wednesday.

We have very strictly implemented all measures to prevent infection: revaccination of cosmonauts and employees of the Center takes place on time, medical masks are used and the rules on social distance are observed. This is quite enough," the press service said, answering the agency's question about measures in connection with the spread of a new strain of coronavirus in the world.

On August 23, the head of the CPC Maxim Kharlamov told Interfax that revaccination had begun in the Cosmonaut Squad. According to him, by August, all members of the squad had either been vaccinated against coronavirus, or had received antibodies naturally.

"The initial vaccination has been completed. Now we have some under the revaccination program. We had those who were contraindicated, someone got sick until they were vaccinated, but we have 100% immunity in the squad," Kharlamov said.

In early May, the CPC informed Interfax that the vaccination of the cosmonaut squad was almost completed. The last to be vaccinated were cosmonauts Sergey Ryzhikov and Sergey Kud-Sverchkov, who were on the ISS at the time of the start of the vaccination company.

As the leading epidemiologist of the CPC Sergey Savin told Interfax, astronauts without antibodies may not be allowed on the ISS.

Cosmonauts Oleg Artemyev and Nikolai Chub were the first to be vaccinated against coronavirus. They received their first dose of vaccination on December 18.

Dmitry Rogozin, head of the Roscosmos State Corporation, announced in early December that cosmonauts and employees of the Center will be among the first to be vaccinated.

On November 22, the state corporation Roscosmos reported that the average level of collective immunity to COVID-19 in organizations of the rocket and space industry exceeded 70%. In the CPC, according to the state corporation, it exceeds 75%.

On April 20, the head of Roscosmos, Dmitry Rogozin, announced that 18,452 people had been ill with coronavirus in the space industry, which is 10.4% of the total number of employees of the corporation. 123 people died, among them the general designer of the Rocket and Space Corporation Energia, one of the creators of the ISS Evgeny Mikrin.
