The French virologist, who received the Nobel Prize for the discovery of HIV in 2008, Luc Montagnier, stated that the new coronavirus COVID-19 disease was not of natural origin and had been developed in the laboratory.
“We concluded that there was a manipulation of this virus”, – Montagnier said in an interview with CNEws. He notes that HIV particles were added to COVID-19.
“It the virus is not of natural origin, it is the work of molecular biologists”, – the virologist said.
“For what purpose was this done? It’s not clear… My job is to present the facts, I don’t blame anyone, I don’t know who did it and why. Perhaps they wanted to produce an AIDS vaccine”, – he suggested. At the same time, he said in an interview with the Pourquoi docteur portal that “this virus came out of Wuhan’s laboratory”.
