The supplied PDF is Michael B. Weissman's article "An Article in Science on Covid Origins Contains a Fundamental Error" in Econ Journal Watch 23(1), published March 2026, and the exact sentence appears verbatim on PDF p. 53 (lines 228–229). The quote is therefore real, verbatim, correctly attributed, and present at the source URL. ([econjwatch.org](https://econjwatch.org/file_download/1405/WeissmanMarch2026.pdf))
