The Lancet: 64,260 Gaza Violent Deaths Indicating 257,000 Indirect Deaths In 9 Months| Countercurrents
On 9 January 2025 epidemiologists published a paper in the leading medical journal The Lancet in which they estimated 64,260 Gaza deaths from traumatic injury in the 9 months since 7 October 2023 but applying an expert estimate of 4 indirect deaths per 1 direct death (Rashid et al, The Lancet, 10 July 2024) indicates 4 x 64,260 = 257,040 further deaths from imposed deprivation and a total of 321,300 Gaza deaths from violence and deprivation in the first 9 months. The Lancet (9 January 2025) estimate of 64,260 violent Gaza deaths in the first 9 months [1] corresponds to 64,260 x 12/9 = 85,680 violent deaths in the first year of the Gaza Massacre. However as carefully estimated below, this indicates 5 x 85,680 = 429,300 deaths from violence and imposed deprivation in the first year of the Gaza Massacre, this including deaths of 302,743 children, 39,668 women and 86,891 men. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
