Contradiction in page edit
First paragraph of main text says "first detected in Botswana", while infobox says "First detected: South Africa". Am I missing something as to why there's a contradiction? JJPlays (talk) 16:28, 6 May 2024 (UTC)
- From the History section, it looks like it was first detected in labs in both Botswana and South Africa from samples collected in the same span of time. The History section could use some clarification on whether they are referring to South Africa as a nation vs Southern Africa as a portion of the continent. (Botswana is in the southern portion of the African continent.) 184.62.88.78 (talk) 21:14, 9 May 2024 (UTC)
