Until a few days ago, I was not willing to use the Lancet study as a reference for anything, because I wasn't sure that the people who claim to have "discredited" the study were wrong, and I didn't feel that I could effectively argue one way or another about the study's validity.
What has changed for me was stumbling upon this article a few days ago. This article effectively discredits those who say they have discredited the Lancet study. Had pdq and GUEST,an old friend been paying attention, they would have seen it...
