Would you like to put those numbers in deaths per 100,000?

Probably not. Because that turns lives into statistics and he is making an emotional appeal about the 10000 theoretical families affected by lost loved ones. I for example, frequently look at local hospitalization rates and remind myself that a good number of them are mothers and fathers on ventilators so I can't F about in public like everyone else while the numbers are rising so I reduce risk of leaving my wife alone with kids while I'm stuck in a hospital bed for a week or 2 and the worry about keeping up on the rent that follows. -not perfectly healthy I'm vaccinated but I think that just makes me certain to not die, but not necessarily keep me out of a hospital bed. Sometimes it helps to remind numbers are people.
