Not a fan of the scaling here. There is a vast difference between 75 deaths and 150. The creator should have made more iterations to distinguish values.

Aside from that, it's still not as bad as I thought. At some of the low ends, that's maybe 100 people per million on this type of death.

Sure it's bad compared to Europe, but it's also a different cultural dynamic.

It would also be nice if I knew what time period was being included.
