It can cause malabsorption, yeah, but won’t those symptoms be exasperated by an environment that is food insecure?? It’s still inhumane living if people with conditions can’t get the food they need to maintain a healthy weight. Weight loss is a symptom but as you can see it can be and often is overcome in places where calorie dense food is readily available and special dietary needs can be met. This child is still CLEARLY starving to death.
Ur actually a fucking imbecile, people with cystic fibrosis DO NOT look like this purely because of their cystic fibrosis. It’s nutritional malabsorption, not a near total lack of it as shown in this picture. Unless you’re more qualified than me (former EMT, current medical student) to speak on the topic kindly shut the fuck up and go back to the hole you crawled out of
…yes, a genetic condition that can be easily treated at a functioning hospital that isn’t getting bombed and destroyed? let’s take food out of the equation since apparently that this child is not also starving from lack of food in your sociopathic mind. CF can cause severe malnutrition IF LEFT UNTREATED. do you know why this child can’t be treated for CF? because israel has bombed and destroyed every operating hospital in Gaza who could provide them treatment to help absorb vital nutrients.
you know what’s evil? deliberately obstructing life-saving aid. ever heard of doctors without borders? i’m sure you have, medical student. you’d have to have some nerve to say as a medical student that these experienced doctors are not with messing what they definitively know to be man-made starvation and malnutrition.
