    When journalists and peer-review get a more accurate number of deaths than… The Gaza health ministry ran by the government of Gaza.

    Okay.

    I said it before. Why don’t we just say 500 thousand dead why be so conservative? Why don’t we even say it’s a million dead!

      Because that’s… not the estimate that the most accurate process they can come up with leads to?

      This sorta reminds me of conversations I’ve had with Trump supporters, where the very idea that you could evaluate a source and one could be more believable than another for reasons other than ideology, (like that one is trying to get the truth and one isn’t), is alien to them.

        I mean this person has absolutely no idea what they’re talking about if they think journalists publish in The Lancet just because it’s called a journal so I think any discussion is absolutely pointless.

          Yeah… and the health ministry has been unable to update their stuff due to being bombed out… do you even listen to yourself?

            They literally released an updated death count today. 39,653 as of today.

            What are you talking about “unable to update stuff due to being bombed out”? Literally. You make things up.
