Nothing in the article suggests that is the case...
And to add, studying 100 isolated people for 22 years is worthy statistical data? Note the articel says

They have discovered almost no cases of cancer or diabetes amongst the group

what does that mean? I'd say 2 would be 'almost no cases', but still, it's a 1:50 chance.
Using the same analysis, what would 100 random, non-smoking people in Iceland show up after studying them for 22 years?
I'd hazard a guess that it's "almost no cases of cancer or diabetes"
