No more scary than riding in a car, by risk by hour of participation, and way less scary than motorcycling, boating, swimming, sitting on your couch etc.

Are you relieved when you get out of the car, out of the pool.

No problem with the sympathy for her and her family, but the fear mongering is misguided and counterproductive.
