Powayseller, your comments are rude and disrespectful. In the future, save us the headache, and confine such to your website.
Oh, and congratulations on doing a great job of attracting potential subscribers to your future website, too.
The Lancet is a leftist medical journal, as is JAMA (Journal of the American Medical Association): every other paper or article is on AIDS, breast cancer, case for nationalized medicine/lack of access, racial disparities in care, etc. The Lancet is inferior to the even-keeled The New England Journal of Medicine and The British Medical Journal. The Lancet and JAMA are, indeed, prestigious, for the same reasons that the NY and LA Times are: for work done long ago, and for adherence to leftist groupthink. I know these things because I read these journals for many years as part of my job.
Maybe you should consider a return to your native land, either permanently or, at least, until your anger passes and your sanity returns.
