I was interested and clicked the first source to find this:
As many as 40,000 people may have died in Venezuela as a result of US sanctionsthat made it harder for ordinary citizens to access food, medicine and medical equipment, a new report has claimed.
The report, published by the Centre for Economic and Policy Research (CEPR) a progressive, Washington DC-based think tank, says those deaths took place following the imposition of sanctions in the summer of 2017.
Summer of 2017… hmm… which makes me doubt every other word in the article.
