    What a fucking joke of a statistic.

    To the 400k you should add 1.2-1.4 million traffic deaths, 700k suicides, and we are not even talking about the deaths from armed conflicts, that climbed over 200k due to the war in Ukraine.

      Additionally, this is counting the diseases mosquitos spread so what about the diseases humans spread regularly? Not counting pandemics or if they count, average them out across the same time span these averages are taken from.
