    Really? Which is X and which is Y in this situation?

    I don’t take issue with any implication, but find the sentence somewhat unclear because of the phrasing.

    Would the sentence have still been true if they had just written ‘people’? Wouldn’t a lack of access to clean water and other supplies needed for good hygiene increase infections for everyone?
