As if the pandemic’s fatal second wave hadn’t caused enough fear, a viral comment attributed to French virologist and Nobel winner Luc Montagnier has shocked and alarmed netizens. According to this remark, everybody who has been vaccinated against Covid-19 would die within two years.
On social media, a videotape of Luc’s interview has gone viral, in which he is shown criticizing the notion of vaccinating people during the epidemic.
“It’s unthinkable to vaccinate during a pandemic. They’re silent. It is the antibodies produced by the virus that enable the infection to become stronger. It is what we call antibody-dependent enhancement, which means antibodies favour a certain infection. It is clear that the new variants are created by antibody-mediated selection due to the vaccination,” Luc says in the French interview.
A Twitter user shared the video with the caption: All vaccinated people will die within 2 years. Nobel laureate Luc Montagnier has confirmed that there is no chance of survival for people who have received any form of the vaccine. In the shocking interview, the world’s leading virologist stated bluntly: “There is no hope…”
Though Luc had labelled mass vaccination during the pandemic an unacceptable medical blunder and voiced concerns about antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE), it was later discovered that he had not said that everyone who received the Covid-19 vaccine would die within two years.
The Nobel laureate has called mass vaccination against coronavirus during the pandemic “unthinkable” and a historic blunder that is “creating the variants” and leading to deaths from the disease. He has also raised concerns about antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE).
According to the Mary Ann Liebert “Coronavirus Resource Center,” virus-specific antibodies are in general considered antiviral and play an important role in controlling infections in a number of ways.
However, in some instances, the presence of specific antibodies can be beneficial to the virus. This activity is known as antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE). The ADE of virus infection is a phenomenon in which virus-specific antibodies enhance the entry of the virus, and in some cases, the replication of the virus.
The Press Information Bureau (PIB) has also refuted the claim, calling it fake.
