Of course it is how lives are impacted that is most important.  Duh!  But that doesn't mean we should ignore the numbers and statistics because guess what....they tell us not only about the lives already impacted but give us some insight into how many others will suffer from this and when we are safe to relax the economy crushing restrictions....which also are changing lives. 

So I reject your proposition that considering the numbers somehow diminishes concern for those impacted by the Wuhan virus.  Some of us can actually do both and are doing both.
