Original Note:
The 71-year-old woman who died was a Myanmar refugee in Thailand. The hospital in Thailand was a receiver of some USAID funds (now frozen). While factually correct to say that she died after the announcement, it is highly misleading and it suggests a nonexistent causal link. https://time.com/7212435/gavin-yamey-essay-trump-foreign-aid-disease https://www.yahoo.com/news/us-aid-freeze-claims-first-115600775.html
