Sucharit Bhakdi is a very distinguished retired Thai-German microbiologist, formerly a professor at the University of Mainz, where he led the Institute of Medical Microbiology and Hygiene until 2012.
He has won a bunch of awards.
The COVID-19 pandemic is a fake—death counts are inflated by false positives and mislabeled causes to justify control.

Trying to remember
Writing this post years later, I can't remember clearly, but from what I can recall, Sucharit was one of the first 'mainstream' scientists to call BS on the whole thing, declaring it a 'fake' crisis.

He argued that measures like face masks and quarantines were nonsense, and he noted the grave dangers of the jab, which he said causes severe harm and could lead to many deaths.
Sucharit believed that 'Covid' was no more threatening than the flu, and rendered the jab completely unnecessary.
In fact, he added that the injection increased risks like blood clots and autoimmune reactions. He also raised the possibility that mRNA jabs could alter human DNA.
