Original Note:
This is severely misleading. The “30%” applies to weight-for-height scores, the “15%” applies to mid-upper arm circumference measurements. Both have been used by the IPC for years, as explained in their 2021 technical manual (p 37): https://www.ipcinfo.org/fileadmin/user_upload/ipcinfo/manual/IPC_Technical_Manual_3_Final.pdf
