There's a reason every scientist you know is like: I can only speculate and I won't give prescriptive statements beyond my specific field of study. Yet every other economist and MBA you know is like: I did math correct once, I should be given the nuclear codes.

This evacuation order would force Palestinians to walk around 1.5 to 4+ hours from the closest and farthest points east of Rafah (red) to north of Khan Younis (yellow). Along their path is total devastation, confirmed and unknown mass graves, and potential unexploded ordinances.
Replying to @AkbarSAhmed
Receiving & responding to this warning requires capacities many displaced Palestinians lack: -consistent internet/phone access (+ ability to recharge) -physical strength to move yet again amid disease, near-starvation -resources for transport+new shelter

It’s extremely funny that as soon as COVID was even halfway over we all implicitly agreed to never talk about it again. Seems to be the default human response to plagues. You can read all of English literature from the 14th century and have no idea the Black death happened
