1 in 5 is lucky when you consider that the mortality rate is 1 in 3. statistically it was more likely to be 2 in 5. But I suppose that the cognitive dissonance is so strong that it could be 6 out of 5 and they still would refuse the right thing to do.

This isn't weird. This is fucking sad. It could have 5 or of 5 instead of just one.

Aaaa you thought I was going the other way. Lol
