A PIB fact check busted the fake news and said that the vaccine is completely safe.

"An image allegedly quoting a French Nobel Laureate on COVID-19 vaccines is circulating on social media. The claim in the image is FAKE. COVID-19 Vaccine is completely safe. Do not forward this image." PIB wrote on its official factcheck twitter handle.

Last year, Montagnier had claimed that the novel coronavirus is man-made and contains genetic material from HIV.

The Central government has time and again asserted that vaccines are completely safe and are crucial in the fight against the pandemic.
