Dr. Stephen Morse: "Wearing a mask will protect me from the virus." The problem is that people who wear these masks usually don't wear them properly.
Dr. Syra Madad: "The coronavirus came from bat soup." (Morse sighs) That is absolutely not correct.
Morse: "The coronavirus was deliberately created or released."
Madad: Giving humans a little bit too much credit here.

Morse: And I'm Dr. Stephen Morse, professor of epidemiology at the Mailman School of Public Health, Columbia University. We're here to debunk myths about the coronavirus.
