  You mean a simple LIE, actually.


  The New England Journal of Medicine was pounced upon by so many expert 
researchers that they retracted their claim and *publically apologized* 
for publishing such a misleading statement.  Then then gave the real 
number...which was around 4-6.

  (but I'm sure someone will dredge it up and post it for you, if you're 
really among the people who *honestly* didn't know about it, rather than 
those who do know but prefer to keep repeating it as "truth" anyway...;)
