Yup, but if the deaths were to average, healthy people, then there would be widespread panic if they announced that. So it's in the Health Authority's best interests to control the reactions by not letting them be shaped by sudden developments (something they've been atrocious about thus far). People should be neither alarmed nor complacent, regardless of who these latest victims were.
