Several months, perhaps? The article you link to and the letter it references are both dated July 6 2020. Even now COVID-19 has only existed for a couple of years (not several).
It is impossible for anyone to have spent several years (by July 2020) doing anything relating to a specific virus or the consequential disease 7 months after the first known infection.
- GeekyBear 5y agoThe evidence for finding that Covid was airborne was discussed before the letter was written. The Pacific Princess, where the virus continued to spread between passengers who were locked down in their cabins, was in January 2020, for instance.
- scoot 5y agoYes, so again, a period of several months, not several years.
