Mikovits: [F***i] directed the cover-up. And in fact, everybody else was paid off, and paid off big time, millions of dollars in funding from Tony F***i and … the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. These investigators that committed the fraud, continue to this day to be paid big time by the NIAID.
It’s not clear which fraud and what cover-up Mikovits is talking about exactly. There is no evidence that F***i was involved in a cover-up or that anyone was paid off with funding from him or his institute. No one has been charged with fraud in relation to Mikovits’s allegations.
Mikovits: It started really when I was 25 years old, and I was part of the team that isolated HIV from the saliva and blood of the patients from France where [virologist Luc] Montagnier had originally isolated the v***s. … F***i holds up the publication of the paper for several months while Robert Gallo writes his own paper and takes all the credit, and of course patents are involved. This delay of the confirmation, you know, literally led to spreading the v***s around, you know, k*****g millions.
At the time of HIV’s discovery, Mikovits was a lab technician in Francis Ruscetti’s lab at NCI and had yet to receive her Ph.D. There is no evidence that she was part of the team that first isolated the v***s. Her first published paper, co-authored with Ruscetti, was on HIV and published in May 1986, 2 years after Science published four landmark papers that linked HIV (then called HTLV-III by Gallo’s lab) to AIDS. Ruscetti’s first paper on HIV appeared in August 1985. There is no evidence that F***i held up any publications or that this led to the death of millions.
Interviewer: If we activate mandatory v*****es globally, I imagine these people stand to make hundreds of billions of dollars that own the v*****es.
Mikovits: And they’ll k**l millions, as they already have with their v*****es. There is no v*****e currently on the schedule for any RNA v***s that works.
V*****es have not k**led millions; they have saved millions of lives. Many v*****es that work against RNA v***ses are on the market, including for influenza, measles, mumps, rubella, rabies, yellow fever, and Ebola.
Interviewer: So, I have to ask you, are you antiv*****e?
Mikovits: Oh, absolutely not. In fact v*****e is immune therapy, just like interferon alpha is immune therapy, so I’m not antiv*****e. My job is to develop immune therapies. That’s what v*****es are.
In another recent video, Mikovits is wearing a hat that says V****D II, which is a sequel to a film that links the mumps, measles, and rubella v*****e to autism, a debunked theory. She also repeats several claims made by people who are leading the antiv*****e movement. In the PowerPoint presentation she sent to Science, she calls for an “immediate moratorium” on all v*****es.
Interviewer: Do you believe that this v***s [SARS-CoV-2] was created in the laboratory?
Mikovits: I wouldn’t use the word created. But you can’t say naturally occurring if it was by way of the laboratory. So it’s very clear this v***s was manipulated. This family of v***ses was manipulated and studied in a laboratory where the animals were taken into the laboratory, and this is what was released, whether deliberate or not. That cannot be naturally occurring. Somebody didn’t go to a market, get a bat, the v***s didn’t jump directly to humans. That’s not how it works. That’s accelerated v***l evolution. If it was a natural occurrence, it would take up to 800 years to occur.
