Overall: New enough and long enough, neutral, well cited, Earwig ok, and hooks check out from the source. Review not done, but from what I can see this is only your second DYK nomination, so below 5 credits and not mandatory. Maybe a small suggestion on the alt hook (below), but should be ok as is too.

ALT1a: ... that Portuguese HIV researcher Odette Ferreira flew from Lisbon to Paris with test tubes of blood in her coat to maintain the right temperature ~~for research~~ and test them at the Pasteur Institute?

Comment: This is my first DYK review, a second opinion to confirm assessment would be good. Alan Islas (talk) 15:01, 4 July 2020 (UTC)

Hi, I came by to promote this. I added a "citation needed" tag to verify one claim, and tagged the lead for insufficiently summarizing the article. Yoninah (talk) 16:44, 19 July 2020 (UTC)

Thanks for comments. Citation added. Lead expanded, minor improvements made and low-resolution, fair-use photo added to Infobox.Roundtheworld (talk) 08:27, 20 July 2020 (UTC)

Thank you. Restoring tick per Alan Islas' review. Yoninah (talk) 20:00, 20 July 2020 (UTC)
