So....What have we learned from all this?

I do understand what peer review means. All of these studies are new, so I would expect it to take time for them to be peer reviewed and challenged, rather than just accepted. This is science.

Not entirely true.

A few weeks back there was data from France showing smokers are 4-5x less likely to get it. And there was data from China showing the same that they'd sent to a US medical journal for peer review and publication and the Chinks knew no-one would trust anything they said otherwise.

So peer review can happen quite quickly.
