Your wording is certainly better than the ambiguous article title. I would write it your way too.
"I'm worried about X" usually means that I'm concerned for X's welfare, but not always. It takes some context to disambiguate the phrase.
A couple of examples:
"I'm worried about that stray kitten."
"I'm worried about the lion perched in that tree."
They are both felines, but clearly in one case I'm concerned about the cat's safety, in the other case what the cat might do to me.
