That's very high for the overall population, but I'm guessing the actual number is close to 0 for say Americans who never left the country (we don't have malaria deaths contracted from inside the states, do we?). If you are someone that surfs 4-5 times/week during the season, I guarantee the odds of you dying from a shark are much higher than dying of malaria.
