in 2020, French virologist and Nobel Prize recipient Luc Montagnier alleged that Covid’s genetics were the product of “manipulation.” Montagnier was cofounder of the World Foundation for AIDS Research and Prevention, and codirected the Program for International Viral Collaboration. “Someone added sequences,” he said of Covid. “It’s the work of professionals, of molecular biologists . . . a very meticulous work.” In early 2021, Dr. Stephen Quay, MD, PhD, CEO of Atossa Therapeutics, conducted an analysis that concluded beyond a reasonable doubt that Covid-19 is lab-derived.
