Alandy Dy 08:20 AM, Nov 15, 2021 

Hi, good morning!

I would like to request the statistics / data on the malnourished people in the country from the start of the pandemic until the present.

I am hoping to identify the following:

1. The demographics of malnourished in the country (e.g. sex, age, social class);

2. The city / province / region with the highest number of malnourished individuals;

3. Factors that affected their being malnourished.

I am hoping to have a copy of this data as soon as possible for both of my classes - one for submission and the other for our research project.

Thank you!
