The link in the article does not show the study, just a list of references, a summary and the researchers who published it. How many of the researchers who published this study have conflicts of interest? Where is the full study for review?

The first link in the article goes straight to the study:

https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6...

I saw that and described the page you linked. The actual study is gate kept behind a paywall or "institutional access".

Yes, it's unfortunate that the Lancet is not an Open Access journal. But, as you say, you can just purchase the paper if you wish to read it
Then, therefore, this article is making broad, bold claims without accessible proof.
