A new twist in the Djokovic soap opera.
Deprived of the Australian Open since he is not vaccinated, the Serb would be the co-founder and owner of a Danish biotech.
His goal: to find a treatment for Covid.
This is reported to AFP Ivan Loncarevic, CEO of QuantBioRes.
“
He is one of the founders of my company, created in June 2020. Our objective is to develop a new technology to fight viruses and resistant bacteria and we have decided to use Covid as a showcase.
If we succeed with Covid-19, we will succeed with all the other viruses.
".
Listed on the register of Danish companies, "Novax" is effectively the owner with his wife Jelena of 80% of the biotech.
About twenty employees, scattered in Denmark, Slovenia, the United Kingdom and... Australia are employed there.
Clinical trials should begin this summer in Great Britain according to Loncarevic.
AFP, which contacted Novak Djokovic's spokesperson about this, was refused any comments.
