Remember kids, money's not real, and stock and shares? An order of magnitude moreso.

The microsimulation models (table 3) indicated that, in 2025, reductions in USAID funding per capita would result in approximately 1 776 539 (95% uncertainty interval 967 604–2 496 308) all-age deaths and 689 900 (436 368–911 004) deaths in children younger than 5 years. Over the remainder of the period, the complete defunding of USAID would cause an estimated 2 450 000 all-age deaths annually, leading to a total of 14 051 750 (8 475 990–19 662 191) excess all-age deaths and 4 537 157 (3 124 796–5 910 791) excess under-five deaths by 2030.

I assume anyone with a pension or global index funds will have taken a hit.

That'll be all (or most) of us then.

I'd be interested in your opinion on the flaws in their simulation.

Published in The Lancet, that famously lefty peer-reviewed scientific medical journal which has been published for over 200 years.

If it’s wrong there will be another paper to refute it. Though since that was published 11 months ago nobody seems to be rushing to correct it.
