    Right, we’re talking likely 2% or more of the entire population killed so far. That’s horrific

      Try 10%

      The Lancet estimated 186,000 dead which would be 8%, but noted that there’s no real way to know. Since they were a little conservative with their guesswork and about 6 weeks have passed since then, I think 10% dead out of Gaza’s population of 2 million is highly likely by now.

          Yeah. I agree with queermunist about the inaccuracy of using the lower bound as if it was the estimate, which almost all of the media is currently doing. 😢
