To put some perspective on this, how many have died in the same period from industrial/mining accidents, car crashes, train derailments, ambulance ramping, golden staph, meningococcal, domestic violence, suicide, drug overdose, medical errors, silicosis, asbestosis, drowning, sharks and the list goes on.
All are preventable and very unfortunate, however the country does not have unlimited resources to make us 100% safe 100% of the time.
