But now, it turns out that information was wrong. The Robert Koch Institute (RKI), the German government’s public health agency, has written a letter to NEJM to set the record straight, even though it was not involved in the paper.

Politics.

I think I understand your point, and you don’t appreciate someone not involved with a paper making contact on the issue. If they read the report and it seemed to make sense, isn’t it okay for them to provide a copy of the findings?

You mentioned that is now clear that people can be infected by someone passing gas. How have they documented that?

I realize that they have found the virus in feces and in the lower bowel area. Does that mean that they have actually documented that someone has contracted the 2019 nCoF by simply breathing in fowl air?
