According to the International Shark Attack File(ISAF), between 1958 and 2016 there were 2,785 confirmed unprovoked shark attacks around the world, of which 439 were fatal.[16] Between 2001 and 2010, an average of 4.3 people per year died from shark attacks.[3]

Still very low, but nearly 100 times higher than your number.

The world is somewhat larger than the red sea area.

If you find yourself in that region, the sharks may be the least of your concerns :)

here Well, here I am.. should I call for help, or just try to swim away? 🥲

Well, I guess you are there intentionally, so enjoy yourself!

If you go swimming, stuff some raw steaks in your swimsuit. If a shark attacks, you can feed it the steak and it'll leave you alone :)

This is a LGBTQ friendly instance, most people here won't be terribly welcome in those countries.

Also not the most stable region ATM either.
