From the article:
“Consider this: If ten million people are going to die with a probability of 10%, that is like one million people dying with a probability of 100%.”
Lies.
Damn lies.
Statistics.
Well, it’s clear why he’s a professor of music, and not of statistics.
That would also mean that a billion people (a far closer representative of the actual world population) stand a one-in-a-thousand chance of dying.
So the man wants to kill people because a billion future people stand a one-in-a-thousand chance of dying.
