	Lancet survey of mortality before and after the 2003 invasion of Iraq - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A survey published in The Lancet on 29 October 2004 estimated the casualties of the 2003 invasion and subsequent occupation of Iraq to be 98,000 (95% confidence interval: 8000 to 194000) more than would have been expected without the invasion, although there are some qualified caveats (explained below).
		The relative risk of death due to the 2003 invasion and occupation was estimated by comparing mortality in the 17.8 months after the invasion with the 14.6 months preceding it.
		Fred Kaplan argued in Slate that the prewar mortality rate finding of 5 deaths per 1000 must have been low because Iraq's mortality rate in the period from 1980-1991 were all higher, ranging from 6.8 to 8.1, and that the study's conclusions were overstated because of this discrepancy.

		Cosmonaut Alexander Kaleri, the mission's flight engineer, is busy reacquainting himself with the Russia he left when Expedition 8 launched into the sky in October 2003.
