Original Note:
The child depicted is Yazan al-Kafarna, who died from malnutrition caused by cerebral palsy. Malnutrition due to CP is common in low to middle-income countries. While the war may have worsened the medical care, this is not evidence for a famine. https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry/nyt-highlights-emaciated-10-year-old-boy-as-face-of-starvation-in-gaza/ https://www.cerebralpalsyguidance.com/cerebral-palsy/associated-disorders/malnutrition/ https://www.mdpi.com/2072-6643/14/6/1211
