Pierre-Louis Drew, a member of the French Scientific Council for Combating Coronavirus, said the second wave of COVID-19 would approach Europe in the fall, but would be "completely different."
According to Gadin.Net, the expert spoke about this in an interview with Owest-France.
"It is important to prepare for a new wave, because wars are won not through offensive weapons, but through training and strategies," he said.
He called on the government to develop a strategy to fight the pandemic, noting that the vaccine will not be ready soon and that they have been looking for a cure for HIV for seven years.
In France, StopCovid monitors all contacts of people infected with the virus. However, Pierre-Louis Drew said the French were opposed to tracking and collecting personal information through the app.
According to the doctor, there is no magic cure for coronavirus. Although some methods show good results in severe cases, there is no effective treatment in the initial stage. However, in his opinion, hydroxychloroquine and antibiotics are clearly ineffective.
"I don't know if this is fake news or politics," he said, adding that there were no indications that a reliable vaccine would be available soon.
In addition, the scientist said that today it is not clear to experts how much antibodies can be stored in the body. He attributed the infection to "surprises."
