Pure conjecture here. I changed my search criteria.
Here’s what I think, based upon what I am seeing.
Derek Knauss is a writer.
He writes mostly for this place... https://prepareforchange.net/author/knaussdr/

I found him here, gathering info re: COVID lies
https://goldenageofgaia.com/2020/07/17/derek-knauss-government-and-media-proven-to-be-lying-to-public-about-covid-pandemic/

Is it possible he was writing or passing on a story about a PhD in virology and immunology and someone screwed up by calling him a Dr.?

I searched for the first sentence - “I have a PhD in virology and immunology”

and come up with a surprising number of hits. Not many attributed to anyone.

except for this fact check attribution, which was deemed false by a NY professor at Cornell University College of Veterinary Medicine who doesn’t have an office in California.

https://www.vet.cornell.edu/research/faculty/robert-oswald-phd - look under “research interest”

Should it be this hard to validate something?
Should it be quoted as if it is legit when it can’t be verified?
Yet it keeps getting passed on.
We used to be way better than this.

Now I’m done digging on this.
