    (Boston globe non-paywalled version)

    Just how storms contribute to people’s deaths after the immediate impact is something that needs further study, Hsiang said. But he theorized it includes the health effects of stress, changes in the environment including toxins, people not being able to afford health care and other necessities because of storm costs, infrastructure damage and government changes in spending.

      This is a gift articles community; there’s already no paywall on the main link. You may need to turn on Javascript or turn off a browser extension which removes the access token from the URL.

        Yeah the gift link doesn’t work for me. it gives the first few paragraphs of the article and stops. I didn’t feel like diagnosing it and in this case the headline was clickbait, so i went and pasted the spoiler from a web search.

          The common causes of that are:

          • Device needs reboot
          • You’ve disabled javascript
          • You’re running a browser extension which removes the gift token from the URL

          I’m guessing it’s the disabled javascript; the Boston Globe has a paywall for anybody who has it enabled.

            I don’t really care about it that much. I can usually see enough of the NYT article to tell whether it’s interesting, and then use a paywall bypass if i want to read it. Or in this case I just did a web search and found the Boston Globe article.
