>We’re mapping a human health tragedy that may get way worse before it subsides. Do we really want the map to be screaming bright red? Red [...] can connotates [sic] danger, and death, which is still statistically extremely rare for coronavirus. This really seems like a case of "it's not a bug, it's a feature". It may be rare (so far, anyway), but few would argue "danger and death" is an inaccurate characterization.
