This is complete bullshit, there is no fucking way that many people will die of starvation.
Our business has people calling every day begging for a refund because they can't feed their families. And this is America. I believe it. https://www.wfp.org/news/wfp-chief-warns-hunger-pandemic-covid-19-spreads-statement-un-security-council
Africa has like ~1.5 billion people, almost all of which depend on foreign aid, and every country is hoarding right now. 130 million is lowballing it.
I don't fucking buy it. Won't happen.
South Africa's had food riots for weeks now and things are getting worse.
