Quote:Thank you for your query following up on this. Alongside the publisher, this paper and the concerns raised have been reviewed in line with the industry standards of the Committee on Publication Ethics. We found that there are many interpretations of the Voynich manuscript and that this paper offers one of them, so we have taken the decision that no further action is needed.
With very best wishes
