Geneticist's Jaw-Dropping Discovery About Neanderthal Ancestry!

In a controversial new interview, Harvard University geneticist David Reich stated that all non-Africans are essentially "evolved Neanderthals". Furthermore, He makes the case that rather than only 2 or 3% of our DNA coming from Neanderthals, Europeans are actually up to 20% Neanderthal. This is because Neanderthal DNA was removed from our genomes due to natural selection over the last 50,000 years. Neanderthals, who disappeared from the archaeological record around 40,000 years ago, have long been regarded as our closest evolutionary relatives. However, since the first discovery of Neanderthal remains in the 1850s, scientists have debated whether Neanderthals are a separate species or an extinct subset of our own species, 'Homo sapiens'.
