Russian Embassy in Bolivia receives many requests on possible purchase of Avifavir drug

Buenos Aires, Jul 15 (Sputnik) The Russian Embassy in Bolivia is getting many requests regarding the possible purchase of the Avifavir drug against COVID-19, which was recently presented to Latin American countries, Ambassador to Bolivia Vladimir Sprinchan told Sputnik.
On July 10, the Russian Embassy in Guatemala together with the Russian Direct Investment Fund (RDIF) held a presentation of Avifavir for Latin American and Caribbean states, which was attended by over 1,000 people. RDIF CEO Kirill Dmitriev said that Latin American countries would be the first to receive supplies of Avifavir.
"There are a lot of requests — from governors, public organizations, pharmacy chains, but the nuance is that the medication needs to be registered on the local market," Sprinchan said.
