Nobel Prize for chemistry winner: Karantina hasn't saved any lives so far

Michael Levit has his structural biology lab at Stanford University School of Medicine, and for many years, it has been a reference to the science world. Especially since 2013, when he won the Nobel Prize in Kim.

His team, with the help of volunteers from various countries, is constantly working on virus-related data analysis with the aim of tracking COVID-19 evolution, writes The Telegraph.

The Levites are sharply critical of the strategy chosen by most of the world's governments to fight pandemic.

“I think quarantines didn't save any life”, he said in an interview for The Telegraph on Saturday. “They will have saved several lives in road accidents and similar accidents, but social damage to domestic abuse, divorce, alcoholism has been extreme. And then there are those who didn't get treated for other diseases”, broadcast Telegragraphy.

The Levites believe that with some specific recommendations, such as wearing masks from the beginning of the explosion and adopting certain social distance rules, the same result would have been taken in health, but at a much lower cost.

I think the real virus was panic virus”, he said. “For reasons that are not clear to me, I think the leaders withdrew and people did also, and I think there was a great lack of discussion”
