Death by starvation, or death by COVID-19? (World Net Daily)

May 07, 2020


World Net Daily published an article on how COVID-19 exacerbates food insecurity. In our desire to prevent millions of COVID-19 deaths, we may have sentenced tens of millions of people to starve to death. Perhaps more than 100 million.  If global GDP declines by 5%, another 147 million people could be plunged into extreme poverty, according to IFPRI. Republished in The Christian PostThe StreamClinton Ma Tea PartyCharisma News, and more than ten other major international media outlets.
