The fact that the "Creator of mRNA" got a own Wikipedia page only two weeks ago makes me suspicious. And that his name is only listed on questionable websites. And I've learned that big things are usually not created by one person. The developments around mRNA are mostly attributed to Katalin Karikó, Ingmar Hoerr and Robert Langer - over a long time period.

Before Robert Malone gained media attention, I actually read about him in Wikipedia cited as such. I should have taken a screenshot and there probably are archives but over the next couple days when his name became bigger, I re-read Wikipedia and it was removed. So I went and read his earlier papers in the 8/90s about it

He actually talks about his removal from Wikipedia in the interview I quoted (I'm pretty sure).

I definitely saw him talk about it recently on one of the podcasts he has been on.

Here's the citation from some of his earliest work with mRNA from 1989: https://www.pnas.org/content/86/16/6077.long
