The Edinburgh/Science record shows this wording in a multi-author paper by Worobey et al., so it cannot be verified as a single-author quote solely by Moritz U. G. Kraemer.

The source URL does contain the quoted sentence verbatim in the abstract, and the page lists the publication as published on 2022-08-26. However, it is a multi-author paper credited to Michael Worobey, Joshua I. Levy, Lorena Malpica Serrano, Alexander Crits-Christoph, Jonathan E. Pekar, Stephen A. Goldstein, Angela L. Rasmussen, Moritz U. G. Kraemer, Chris Newman, Marion P. G. Koopmans, Marc A. Suchard, Joel O. Wertheim, Philippe Lemey, David L. Robertson, Robert F. Garry, Edward C. Holmes, Andrew Rambaut, and Kristian G. Andersen, with Michael Worobey and Kristian G. Andersen marked as corresponding authors. Because the quote is not attributed solely to Moritz U. G. Kraemer, this platform cannot verify it as a single-author quote.
