GTG for main hook & ALT 1. A delightful read! Expanded & long enough. Neutral well-written & referenced. Main hook & ALT 1 check out (though the later refs support the main hook better than that given). I can only read the abstract for ALT2, which doesn't support the hook, with no mention of "major health impact", but the other two are better hooks imo anyway. Earwig finds nothing. Pic ok to use - though a cropped version might be better. Johnbod (talk) 16:19, 2 November 2019 (UTC)

Thank you so much for your thorough review! I have taken your suggestion into account and uploaded a cropped version of the image. Please let me know if there is anything else I need to do. Thanks again! --Mmhua (talk) 17:23, 3 November 2019 (UTC)
