> when you lack the ability to read four sentences.

please reread because I believe you've misread the sentences.



Please defend these claims:

> Peter Piot who admits he wrote out the African researcher.

> Peter Piot who admits to racism.


" When asked if he feels responsible for writing Muyembe out of history, Piot pauses.

"I think that's a fair comment," he says

what was your comprehension of those sentences?


> responsible for writing Muyembe out of history

> my book was not an attempt to write the history of Ebola

Calling an accusation "fair" is not the same as admitting the accusation is correct.

It may be fair for the police to suspect you of a crime if you were in the area and match the description. But if you didn't commit the crime then the accusation is not correct.


> Calling an accusation "fair" is not the same as admitting the accusation is correct.

Disagreed. Context is key in this.
