Can we stop pretending people health is insignificant because it is statistically insignificant?

How many people will consume this, how many people will get sick?

How many more product will be dangerous. Are we waiting for more death to just have bare minimum safety measures?

>How many people will consume this, how many people will get sick?

This can't be inferred from the 0.00007% figure? Or are you hoping to use the rhetorical tactic of doing "huge number * small percentage = big number" to shock readers? eg. "0.0001% chance of getting stuck by lightning * all americans = 300 people per year hit by lightning. That's enough to fill an auditorium!"
