True.. so far.

All that's needed is an intersection of high-humidity heat wave + densely populated area + extended power outage.

And/or too few buildings that have A/C or other places to escape the heat like swimming pools, metro tunnels or whatever.

Probably more likely to occur in less-developed areas like India or Africa. But regardless, could happen in many places. Just a few degrees might be the difference between 1000s or 100k+ deaths.
