Luc Antoine Montagnier is a French virologist and joint recipient with Françoise Barré-Sinoussi and Harald zur Hausen of the 2008 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for his discovery of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). He has worked as a researcher at the Pasteur Institute in Paris, and as a full-time professor at Shanghai Jiao Tong University in China.
What follows is an unofficial transcript, with some editing for clarity, of a short talk he gave at:

The original has Italian subtitles which are probably better than the English auto transcript, given the audio quality and his accent. All citations, brickbats and bravos should refer to the original source material. There may be other interviews that are better.
Vaccine is a magic world but people which are watching television have to learn that sometimes it does the opposite what we expect. Instead of preventing infection it makes the infection more dangerous.
How’d this happen? Because the virus is intelligent matter. They take advantage of the antibody we make with the vaccine.
The antibody will bind the virus and the complex will find some receptor of his immune cells. So instead of preventing the infection, we know it will accelerate the infection and make it more more virulent.
This happened to several viruses. This is well known phenomenon for biologists. It’s called “enhancing antibody” and this is known for measles, for dengue and for papilloma virus.

This explains why some vaccines instead of preventing disease, they are causing disease. So we have to be very careful. Don’t accept any kind of vaccine, because most of the vaccines have

adjuvant with aluminum. Aluminum is an inflammatory product which can, of course, stimulate the immune system, but it also stimulates in a nonspecific way […inaudible]
We’re in a dangerous world. Don’t believe everything which is said of the vaccine. Some work well, but I would focus my efforts on finding virus inhibitors. This is known for hepatitis C, a variable virus we know, controlled by specific inhibitors.

We should expect the pharmaceutical industry will alread have many such products not yet tested that will be now tested on Coronavirus.

Hopefully we will find something. The other way of protection is to boost the immune system by reducing oxidative stress, that’svery important. If you are in good health, you will be sick a little bit but you will not die.
