&gt;To an alarming degree, selfie deaths seem to plague India. Here, 19 individuals — 40% of all selfie-related fatalities — met their demise. This can’t solely be attributed to India’s large population (China, by contrast, has only one reported death).<p>Two comments based on that quote alone:<p>1) These numbers are ridiculously low. You can find 50 people dying worldwide every year from X-related fatalities where X is just about anything.<p>2) They acknowledge a crucial fact in their second sentence, that they aren&#x27;t bothering to correct for population or selfie-frequency in any of the demographics they compare (across countries in this case). Of what use are the numbers, then? May as well compare non-price-level-adjusted prices of goods across countries.
