Has it really killed that many people? I thought it was only 100+ but maybe the nearly 900 missing person are presumed dead now?

I guess I'm making an assumption that the 850 or so missing people are dead. I don't know that, but unfortunately it seems like a safe assumption. Reporters who have managed to get near the affected area are saying that there are dead bodies lining the streets.

I truly hope my assumption is wrong and that those 800 people are safe, but it just doesn't seem likely to me given what we know.
