PASSAGE
A doctor diagnoses a patient with Disease X based on a set of symptoms (A, B, and C) that are strongly indicative of the disease. The doctor's belief is well-justified. Later, the doctor reads a newly published, peer-reviewed study which concludes that a benign condition, Condition Y, also presents with symptoms A, B, and C in a significant minority of cases. The study does not provide any information to suggest the patient has Condition Y instead of Disease X.
How does the information from the new study affect the doctor's justification for the belief that the patient has Disease X?
