But here's the thing: volcanoes spend most of their time not erupting. When they do erupt, they often don't kill anyone. On average, there were about 40 volcanoes on earth spewing lava or ash at any single moment in time. They don't usually make headlines because they're merely obeying the laws of thermodynamics, not melting people.

Are people dead?? Holy shit
The area was evacuated ca a month ago, there have been no reports of casualties. This was expected but the intensity of the eruption has exceeded expectations.
