Setting aside the fact that counting tragedies is kinda in bad taste, I think it's relevant to point at a past exemple: "French" company Orange, who has around 100K employees, got into national trouble for a "wave" of suicide that counted in the thenths. [1] The company's french boss got terrible press by calling the series of event a "mode des suicide" (roughly translatable as "suicide fad" or "suicide fashion"). The events highlighted "structural" managerial problems at the company. FB has around ~20k employees, so that might affect the "newsworthyness ratio". It is obviously too early to know if the situation at Facebook is comparable to Orange. I would not be surprised at all, if the narative of "Facebook badly treats is employed" gets popular. FB already has a rather bad rep. Facebook top management had better handle this thoughfully - if only, by pure human decency.
