BA, totally agree. . . . .
again, these stories are like catnip for the hard wired survival brain to be attracted to negative news to avoid that pitfall. . because the human brain developed over a thousand years without modern medicine and statistics, and the brain doesn't intuitively process very tiny negative modern probability outcomes to the trash bin. . .
