You're right - she's something. It's MSNBC -Garrett is ~bumbbing~ subbing for Curefinder, who is recovering from~a panic attack~ "presumptive" COVID-19 [but can't manage to get a positive qPCR or antibody test]. Note: he is not one of us either [a scientist], although he pretends to be one on teevee.

Yes - he went by realvirushunter for a brief time in 2014 after Wolfe fired him in the midst of the Ebola outbreak. Hereverted to curefinder after Wolfe pointed out that they had a legal agreement not to troll each other after the "break-up" of Metabiota. Yes, curefinder is especially lame when you haven't - you know - like actually found anycures.
