Should "a" be removed in "that the risk is a sizeable"?
Context:
"For the first time, we've identified conclusively that long distance travel is associated with a higher risk of getting a deep vein clot, and that the risk is a sizeable," said study co-author Dr. Dariush Mozaffarian who works in the division of cardiology at Harvard Medical School in Boston. "Previously, this had been assumed to be a plausible risk. But, pooling all of the worldwide data together, we were able to identify this risk clearly."
@oristarA,
I had to look it up, oristar. It's Sizable. Keep the 'a', and drop the 'e'.
Now, I'm sure some editor from the UK is going to show up with something different, but can't please everyone.
