Perhaps immediate number of deaths is not the best way to count. It would be valid for tsunami or earthquakes or other disasters with short term effect, bur not things with long term and large scale consequences. Or you'd also say that some of the plane crashes were far worse than Fukushima's or Chernobyl's accidents.
