A person's tolerance for dying mostly seems to be relative to how attention-grabbing the cause of death is and how much attention the press gives it. I do have to wonder if some of these groups of workers are actually any more at risk from this than they would be from the flu during a typical winter, given how heavily concentrated Covid-19 deaths are in the elderly and those with pre-existing conditions. These jobs are more exposed to the flu for exactly the same reasons as they are to Covid-19, but we don't keep a count of how many grocery workers die of ther flu each year, or how many nurses and other medical staff, because it's just the flu, and there certainly aren't headlines keeping us up to date on the tally.
