A famous pair of twins, Grichka and Igor Bogdanoff, who hosted a science and science-fiction television show in France in the 1980s, died within days of each other after contracting COVID-19, BBC News reported.

The brothers, age 72, were not vaccinated and said that their healthy lifestyle would protect them against the virus, BBC News reported. Both were admitted to the hospital in mid-December, with Grichka passing on Dec. 28 and Igor passing on Monday.

Their families did not disclose causes of death, but a lawyer representing the twins confirmed their diagnosis, BBC News reported. Pierre-Jean Chalençon, a family friend, told BFMTV that they left too late to seek treatment at the hospital, where they eventually died, because they believed the virus to be similar to the flu.

“People have said they were anti-vaxxers but they absolutely weren’t,” Chançelon said. “Several friends told them to get themselves vaccinated but they felt because of their lifestyle and their [lack of] comorbidity, they weren’t at risk of Covid.”
