Maybe not "more", how about "potentially equal"?

More than 50% mortality rate. Would you go do that job for £6/hour and no protective gear?

Much more potent than nuclear power in peaceful use as most other activities including Kennedy's adultery many years ago at about the same time as a famous nuclear accident. More people died at Chapaquick than Three Mile Island - not sure about the quote/reference then check the internet.
