Description
Rootclaim is an organization that tries to answer controversial questions through probabilistic analysis.
They offer a “Rootclaim Challenge” for anyone willing to challenge their conclusions. The challenger must make a $100,000 bet and hold a debate in front of two neutral judges. If both judges agree on the same decision, then the winner takes home $100,000.
Peter Miller challenged Rootclaim to a debate on the origins of Covid.
This is the second debate in a three debate series, with an emphasis on discussion of genetic engineering, and whether or not the SARS-CoV-2 virus appears to be engineered. Rootclaim nominated Yuri Deigin as their representative, for this session.
