Having lived in SE Asia for a few years and returning to the USA late last year, I can confidently tell you that the deaths caused by slamming on the economic brakes has killed more people than COVID-19 has even with the inflated numbers left in.
While many Americans enjoyed a huge increase in EBT and Unemployment benifits, along with the stimulus money, most citizens of poor countries got little aid.
The amount of aid and the percentage of people being excluded, ensured many people have literaly starved to death. In poor countries they have fewer animals of any sort in populated areas because they were already consumed years or even decades ago.
Over 7 years of visiting then 3 years of living in the Philippines I saw no one fishing from the shore of any lake, nor river, nor ocean. The pump boats never have a big haul.
Same thing with hunting. Anything besides feral dogs and cats are hard to find. Here in the USA there are still animals that survive in large numbers because being hit by a car is less devastating on the population than hungry bellies.
Nutritional deficiencies for those who can get food:

We have high calorie malnutrition in the USA. People everywhere are feeling the effects of bad nutrition or no food at all. Very heartbreaking.
So true. Most of the world, even developed countries, are in a malnourished state. Unfortunately, even if a person is eating a good organic diet, they are most likely still deficient in key nutrients that protect us against the environmental assaults. When these malnourished bodies are then really challenged, like starvation, they are dropping like flies. Those here in the US are not in much better shape - they just have more fat stores that can be utilized for energy should they food supply be cut off. Sad indeed.
Exactly.
