How do you know that's what they had? I read about a German doctor that tested 1500 blood samples and never found this so called coronavirus.

Yeah, so I click on the "source" link at the bottom of the article, it leads here https://www.xandernieuws.net/algemeen/laboratoria-in-vs-kunnen-in-niet-een-van-1500-positief-getesten-covid-19-vinden/

Why a dutch source for an article related to US universities? Fishy... And then at the bottom of it, in the comment section that link next to "Conclusie: dit artikel berust niet op waarheid en moet frauduleus zijn!"

The claim: A professor at Cornell University said 'COVID 19 does not exist' In attempts to push claims that the coronavirus pandemic is a hoax, some social media users are sharing a lengthy statement that purports to be written by a professor at Cornell University.

A viral post claims Robert Oswald, a professor at Cornell University with a purported Ph.D. in virology and immunology and clinical lab scientist, tested 1,500 "supposed" COVID-19 samples in Southern California and found "not a single case of Covid" after testing them through a scanning electron microscope; only Influenza A and Influenza B were found in the samples.

The post then goes on to claim that Oswald said that the virus "is just another flu strain like every year" and that COVID-19 "does not exist and is fictitious." It adds that Cornell is allegedly suing the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for fraud because it would not provide the university with a viable COVID-19 sample.

Searches show that the content in the statement has circulated on Facebook before being falsely attributed to Oswald.
