Duh……
Ahhh, from the halls of academic research, where you may be highly educated, but it doesn’t make you smart:
Measuring the direct impact of war on health is difficult. Pre-war baseline data is scarce, collecting reliable information during a war is often dangerous, or even impossible, and official statistics come from a deficient health information system. Within these constraints, we will present the available information, which strongly suggests a negative impact on children’s health.

italics mine.
Since when did we not know that war is bad for kids?
