traumatized Mr. Incredible meme of those who know & those who don't know
This is unsurprising to anyone aware how the peanut allergies blew up. Medical guidelines organizations issued a pediatric guideline contrary to known science that wasn't evidence-based, then later course-corrected[^delay]: they fixed their fuck up. It’s pretty well known by the evidence-based medicine community.

So, this isn't some miraculous achievement: it's the correction of a self-inflicted setback.

It's surprising those organizations haven't been sued into oblivion over this.

[^delay]: but only after significant delays when they could no longer deny their fuck up

That is interesting. I have wondered before why I regularly heard and read about peanut allergies in US media and US Internet forums when I've never actually encountered anyone with one here (in central Europe). This answers that question...
