Paper blaming COVID-19 on 5G technology withdrawn:
A paper which argued that 5G cellphone technology could lead to infection with the novel coronavirus has been retracted, but not before scientific sleuth Elisabeth Bik wondered whether it was the "worst paper of 2020."
The article, "5G Technology and induction of coronavirus in skin cells," came from a group from Italy, the United States and Russia, and appeared in theJournal of Biological Regulators and Homeostatic Agents. The journal is published by Biolife, which asserts that it's peer reviewed but has not responded to a request for comment.
The abstract is now marked "WITHDRAWN" on PubMed and the paper has disappeared from the journal's website. The abstract has been preserved here.

Because I hate your formatting
I'm sorry, nothing personal, but I can't. It's ingrained.
Besides, letting aside my derp-lulzing and your atrocious formatting, your restricted selection of "Dr Bik's blog, it's excellent (not just the one post)" with no link to the "not just one post" is... anti-informative, don't you think? (if you don't, you should try it some times - grin).

And also irrelevant.
You couldn't see the links in the summary because I copy-pasted text in my post?!?
You are out-derping even yourself.

textbox extends outside the formfield, and is clipped. Notice the complete lack of horizontal scrollbars at the bbottom of the window or forrmfield element.

But anyway, I'm fine, thanks for asking. A little bit annoyed at the level of idiocy that seems to have swept across the planet in the last week, but I guess I'd better have to start getting used to more of that as time progresses and entropy advances.
