So those odds are not that minuscule and there are going to be victims. Your attitude stems from the idea that seems to be propagated a lot these days : that science and therefore medicine can fix anything, any disease.

Yes, there will be victims. No, I don't subscribe to "science/medicine can fix anything" - don't put absurd words in my mouth/fingers.

Balancing those problems vs BEING DEAD, I'm irritated that you'd deny me the former option.

I've been dead once already; may the fleas of a thousand camels infest the armpits of he who would give me little choice but do it again.
