Life is a risk

Just so you know--life is dangerous.

Number of deaths for leading causes of death:

Heart disease: 647,457

Cancer: 599,108

Accidents (unintentional injuries): 169,936

Chronic lower respiratory diseases: 160,201

Stroke (cerebrovascular diseases): 146,383

Alzheimer’s disease: 121,404

Diabetes: 83,564

Influenza and Pneumonia: 55,672

Nephritis, nephrotic syndrome and nephrosis: 50,633

Intentional self-harm (suicide): 47,173

Just so you know (because the media haven't told you) many people with heart disease and cancer, stroke and diabetes, haven't had their needs met because hospitals and medical staff were chasing Covid19 cases that didn't arrive. You can expect these numbers to increase because early treatment is essential
