This particular publication was peer-reviewed. That means others in the field approved it for publication. I have read though a few other Hulscher publications, (the new kid) and they seem fine. As a Patent Attorney in the sciences, I have read many, many scientific publications. I know how to do that and I know what to check for. This paper is professionally

done. Hulscher has likely published many before in his career before he received his MPH (Masters in Public Health.) Why is Dr. Malone writing what he's writing? I'm not sure, so I should probably not guess or surmise.

Peer reviewed means not one damn thing today un!ess you can convince anyone that viral geneticists regularly peer review fish and game papers. Peer review today often means selected editors sending manuscripts to selected reviewers. I doubt many who cited that paper ever heard of it until it was broached by the authors in more mainstream venues. And as for a MPH it is in my experience largely held by physicians as leg up in administration with little more required of them than a course in statistics. It does not usually come with a heavy dose of science but rather more in public health admin.

Well lets just begin this by saying East meets West...North Meets South...

That sets up a Storm we know so little about. This is an intell cyclone.

This was bound to happen, was it not? The science is being Challenged!

We are not the referee's in this game of skilled knowledge. OnlyObservers.
