Die Folgen eines Hurrikans können indirekt bis zu 11.000 Todesfälle verursachen, berichten Forscher in Nature | Eine Analyse von 501 tropischen Wirbelstürmen zeigt, dass es in den Jahren nach dem Ereignis zu vielen Todesfällen kam – besonders gefährdet nach Stürmen sind Kleinkinder und schwarze Bevölkerungsgruppen

>That’s a Mount Everest of an estimate compared to the official number of deaths — 24 — that the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration attributes to the average storm in the team’s analysis. The results suggest that “hurricanes and tropical storms are a much greater public health concern than anyone previously thought,” said Rachel Young, a University of California at Berkeley environmental economist.

would love to hear the data behind a claim like that! Anyone can understand how infants might be particularly vulnerable after such events but to identify an entire race to be effected anymore than another?
Please share this hypothesis, supporting data and how that conclusion was drawn. By inference of what this says white, yellow, and brown populations are less vulnerable after a hurricane or cyclone. Please I have to hear this logic please share.
Don’t give the republicans even more reason to ignore climate change
