Mental health concerns in aftermath of Puerto Rico hurricane

[Not Ruth]

2. The death count of 34 in Puerto Rico is absolute BS, off by a count of 1100 at a minimum

On average, without a hurricane, 82 people die on Puerto Rico daily (3.411 million population, 8.8 per thousand annual death rate, 365 days in a year) 34 over 2 weeks implies a 97% reduction over the normal non hurricane death rate. A more realistic number would be 2,300 dead at this point, if you consider double to be a realistic expectation. Mental health concerns should be proportional to the death rate imo.
