Apoorva Mandavilli is a reporter for the NYT specializing in COVID issues. She thinks that her job is to NOT investigate how this pandemic-causing virus was able to infect human beings, allegedly because to ask this question is “racist.” Maybe the NYT ought to replace Mandavilli with a new COVID reporter who has at least a mild interest in science.
This is utter garage. The NYT shouldn’t investigate the origin of the virus, not because that would be racist, but because NYT is seriously compromised. This woman should be fired immediately
