Does the fire department respond to deaths of fireman on the job by not acknowledging the fire killed them? If asked whether fires may kill their firemen, does the fire department respond that the science is not conclusive on that issue?
Ditto the soldier example. The armed forces readily state you can die as part of this job. But when you deny something can harm (Agent Orange), then there's a problem.
