Original Note:
The 100k+ number, from a letter in the Lancet, is about what the death toll could go up to “in the coming months and years” if assuming 4 additional indirect deaths for every MOH death, deaths preventable through humanitarian efforts. It’s not a current death count. https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(24)01169-3/fulltext https://x.com/AviBittMD/status/1810138328651440490?mx=2
