If this is accurate, this is what Congressional Hearings are meant for, not Bogus Russian collusion crap.

I have my doubts this is accurate and am heavily leaning towards disinformation

The article states the common cold is caused by a Coronavirus.

That's factually incorrect.

The common cold is caused by a Rhinovirus.

That's reason enough for me to not put any credence in this "article" which is cited in one location on one twitter feed.

Then I will let the Mayo Clinic slap you silly:

“Coronaviruses are a family of viruses that can cause illnesses such as the common cold, severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) and Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS). In 2019, a new coronavirus was identified as the cause of a disease outbreak that originated in China.”

Not all of them. A non-tiny minority are indeed caused by a few kinds of Coronaviruses.

The original 2005 article was published in Virology Journal (a peer-reviewed journal published by Springer Nature; an academic scientific biological and medical publishing company). You can read it on the Internet: (https://virologyj.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/1743-422X-2-69)
