World Bank: Over half of Palestinians in West Bank and Gaza suffer from depression
2023-07-18
[IsraelTimes] A study published by the World Bank on Friday reveals that over half of the Paleostinian population in the West Bank and Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamaswith about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return.

show symptoms of depression.
A symptom of self-reflection
The study, presented in Ramallah in March, indicates that 50 percent of Paleostinian residents of the West Bank and 71% of Gazooks (58% of all Paleostinians in the territories) exhibit symptoms consistent with depression. In addition, 7% of Paleostinian adults screened positive for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

The data for the study, called "Paleostinian Psychological Conditions Survey (PPCS)" was collected from 5,876 respondents over the course of 2022.

At the end of 2022 the average unemployment rate for Paleostinians as a whole was 24%, with a stark disparity between the West Bank (13%) and Gaza (45%). Youth unemployment was particularly high in the strip, at nearly 70%.

The study was carried out by the World Bank in collaboration with the Paleostinian Central Bureau of Statistics (PCBS), and the German nonprofits "International Security and Development Center" (ISDC) and "Zentrum Ãœberleben."

A more in-depth assessment of how mental health factors impact productivity and economic growth in the West Bank and Gaza is scheduled to be published in early 2024.
Because the bank of the whole world has nothing better to do.
