The vaccine is now being tested on volunteers and has shown promising results so far, the Russian minister added.
In August last year, Guinea launched the post-registration clinical trials of Russia's Ebola vaccine Gam Evac Combi, which was developed by the Gamaleya Scientific Research Institute of Epidemiology and Microbiology.
