Imma confess something now. I haven’t read all 67 pages of the new study. Still, I feel like I know what it says. In fact, I feel like I’ve read it before.
That’s because I have, more or less.
Back in November, the paper’s lead author - a biologist named Michael Worobey - made essentially the same claim, using essentially the same data on the the location of the early cases.
But wait, there’s more!
Worobey peddled the same dreck - look, lots of cases around the market, it was the raccoon dogs! - in July 2021 too. (4/7)
