What a garbage headline this is. We don't characterize annual flu deaths this way, or traffic fatalities, or suicides. #themediaisbrokenpic.twitter.com/aXGz80JWxG

Traffic fatalities; 100% avoidable...but companies also equate a common factor of "okay deaths" when looking into things to fix or or ignore.
Suicides; avoidable and self inflicted. But we also note how many people die as well.
But it's not tho
I agree with @JoelShannon91 We should be fighting wars instead of contracting a virus. 6 of em’.
Alternative headline you will never read: "10,000 now dead of coronavirus in US, still over 2,000 short of US H1N1 deaths"
H1N1 killed 12,500 in the US in an entire year. We’re about to blow by that number in 1 month.
