Link? I recall writing in 2020 that the NIH funded the research there.

Funded research and knowingly funded GoF research are two very different things.

If NIH is funding research I’d think there’d be a paper trail of what they’re funding.

I find it interesting that there wasn't even a flawed study they were relying on.

Pretty sure we discussed on this forum that the 6 feet number was pulled out of thin air, and people jumped on it because they needed something concrete to work with, and then it just became the standard.

Pretty sure we discussed on this forum that the 6 feet number was pulled out of thin air, and people jumped on it because they needed something concrete to work with, and then it just became a religious belief where some people acted like you were threatening their life by stepping a millimeter into their 6 foot bubble.
