Worobey’s own rebuttal to Stoyan & Chiu (2024), titled “Confirmation of the centrality of the Huanan market among early COVID-19 cases.” Re-runs the geospatial analysis using alternative statistical approaches intended to sidestep Stoyan & Chiu’s specific objections (centroid assumption, Monte Carlo test construction), and argues the market-centered clustering signal in the December-2019 case data survives those methodological objections.
relevance_note: the zoonosis-side direct reply to the Stoyan/Chiu critique; needed to judge whether that critique actually undermines the geospatial claim or is itself answered.
