Disputed The quoted sentence appears verbatim on the PLOS Medicine article page in the "What do these findings mean?" section, and the article page shows it was published on February 9, 2021. However, the source is a multi-author paper listing eight authors; Xiaoqian Chen is one coauthor, not the sole attributed speaker, so this platform cannot verify it as a single-author quote by Xiaoqian Chen.
