But then it's okay to stop focusing on it once it is endemic and is killing thousands every month? What are you trying to say dude?

What I am trying to say is written right there, I didn't say anything you are alluding to.

We aren't focusing on the thousands of people dying from malaria or the common flu either. Once something is routine it is no longer "news".

In 2021, around 1.2 million people died from diarrheal diseases.
