Your tinyurl gives no evidence whatsoever of numerous recent CO
fatalities.

There are 300 million people in the US alone. One percent is three
million people and a tenth percent is 300,000.

"Numerous" recent CO fatalities would have to be on the order of 100,000
or more in the US alone.

In over three decades of personally keeping extensive fire department
records, I have run across ZERO.
