There are a million HIV deaths annually. Once something becomes endemic we accept it as a new mode of existence.

A million people die a week, worldwide, from all causes.

In the US, which is the region I'm citing for covid deaths, HIV causes ~20,000 deaths a year [0].

Last I checked people are quite considered with global HIV death, especially since they can obviously be reduced dramatically.
