From Bruce Joshua Miller:

I find this utterly bizarre, but the "fact-check" has become a means of search engine capture.

If I Google "virion .12 microns," I get: "Fact check: N95 filters are not too large to stop COVID-19."

I did not Google anything about masks for this search.

That "fact-check" now does not come up for me. Does it still for you?
