Thanks for the correction! My mistake - but I would argue it's WAY less scary. Chance of death is already high when you're 80 (4%). An extra 133% is 5.32% chance of death. If you're 16 is 0.02%. An extra 133% is a rounding error.

Extra 133%, not extra 33%. So from 4% to 9.33%, not 5.33%

But if that extra 133% risk is kept throughout your lifetime then back to being scary :/

It's an extra ~1,400 deaths in the 15-18 age group.
