minus-squareoo1linkfedilink9•1 year agohumans too. i think if you attribute car killings to humans they beat mosquitos by a decent margin.
minus-square@ozymandias117linkEnglish11•1 year agoMaybe? Cars in the US kill like 40,000 people a year; mosquitoes kill like 725,000 people a year
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish9•edit-21 year agoYeah but 1.35 million die globally from car crashes, far more than mosquitoes kill.
minus-square@ozymandias117linkEnglish4•1 year agoInteresting. That was more than I expected when looking at like China/India/US That looks like the official number, though. I thought mosquito deaths were being underestimated
minus-square@AngryCommieKenderlinkEnglish5•1 year agoWell we have gotten the number down significantly over the last century or so
minus-square@AngryCommieKenderlinkEnglish3•1 year agoYeah, but mosquitoes have a much bigger head start, and we’ve significantly reduced mosquito related deaths in the last century. Over the last 250,000 years even cars don’t come close yet.
