How many large passenger jet crashes for commercial aviation to become safe?
How many surgeries killed a patient to have modern medicine?

Lots of very very bad stuff ahead amidst wonder and progress. Leadership is making sure the world hears it straight from the top. As it is. Treating us like adults.
Thank you @sama for saying it straight.
