It kills more than covid every year!
- eesmith 5y agoWhile you meant it as a joke, your link comments that H2O "is a known causative component in many thousands of deaths" each year. This low-balls the actual numbers. Worldwide, about 300K people die of drowning - https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/drowning-deaths-by-age-group?country=~OWID_WRL https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/drowning-deaths-by-age-gr... . "Exposure (heat and cold)" is another ~50K - https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/annual-number-of-deaths-by-cause?country=~OWID_WRL https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/annual-number-of-deaths-b... . By comparison: "As of Jun 10, 1,884,146 people have died of COVID-19 in 2021, compared with the 1,880,510 in 2020." - https://www.cidrap.umn.edu/news-perspective/2021/06/global-covid-deaths-2021-have-topped-all-last-years https://www.cidrap.umn.edu/news-perspective/2021/06/global-c... COVID kills at least 5x more than water in the last two years. And those numbers are from only 1/2-way through 2021.
