Did you follow the link in the article to the NEJM report?

[–] Nusm@peachpie.theatl.social 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I missed the link in the article. I went back and tried to read it, but its paywalled. But yes, a link to an article in the NEJM legitimizes it. I visit the Gulf Coast of Florida, and I wanted to know where this happened. When I wasn’t able to find any location, it made me question whether this was legitimate.

Missing the link would definitely prevent one from following it. Lol

I didn't worry about the legitimacy much because ars tech is pretty good about those things I knew there had to be a link in there somewhere. It was easy to miss so I don't fault you
