In the citing paper
“It's a theme repeated in other Anglocolonial states, where crowding, inadequate ventilation, poor cleaning facilities and even lack of running water in rural housing settings that are often under government fiduciary responsibility, are strongly associated with severe infection in Indigenous peoples (Ali et al., 2018; Bailie et al., 2004; Bailie et al., 2010; Baker et al., 2012; Boyd, 2011; Kovesi”

Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThe source backs part of the claim, not all of it — or backs it for a different population, condition or comparison.
In the citing paper
“Multiple national studies have found that the primary factors driving this cascade of severe coinfections are low income, exceedingly poor housing conditions in the Australian National Reserve System, and inadequate provision of clean water (Ali et al., 2018; Bailie et al., 2004; Bailie et al., 2010; McDonald et al., 2010).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
