Coauthor of a 2026 Open COVID Journal meta-analysis on scientific consensus and COVID-19 origins.
The presence of SARS-CoV-2-like viruses in smuggled pangolins from Southeast Asia (segments 379, 394, 448, 353, 226, 234, 538, Supplementary 11) and the possibility of cross-species transmission through wildlife markets or transport routes (segments 440, 452, 439, Supplementary 11) support this hypothesis.Disputed (Mar 9, 2026)

Source is a multi-author Open COVID Journal article (Afolabi et al.); this sentence is article text, not a verifiable single-author quote by Adegboyega T.

The quoted wording does appear in the fetched PDF at page 9, lines 1033-1038, though in the source it begins mid-sentence after a comma ("..., the presence of SARS-CoV-2-like viruses..."). However, the article is attributed to multiple authors, and T.I. Adegboyega is listed only as one coauthor rather than the sole speaker/author; this platform cannot verify a multi-author paper as a single-author quote. The article metadata also shows an electronic publication date of 2026-03-09. ([opencovidjournal.com](https://opencovidjournal.com/contents/volumes/V6/e26669587424966/e26669587424966.pdf))
