> Mike Yeadon, former VP and Chief Scientist for Respiratory Disease at Pfizer, seems to agree
My only quibble is with Mike Yeadon. In the context you've provided, he's a great reference, at least superficially. Yes, he "seems to agree".
However, if you read his latest piece carefully, you'll see that he doesn't say "no viruses", and he doesn't even say "no SARS-CoV-2". He says "no NOVEL virus". It seems like it was carefully crafted by an attorney, to seem to be taking a stand, yet he doesn't make it to the goal line by mere inches.
