How does a tornado impact the population?
Tornadoes do kill people, but it is rare for the death toll to make a substantial dent in the population unless a tornado kills a large number of people in a small community. A more significant effect is for some people to leave an area after a tornado hits. For example, most of the town of Greensburg, Kansas, was destroyed by a tornado in 2007. Only 12 of its 1,600 residents died, but since the tornado, more than 800 have moved away.
How many people get killed by a supercell?
Most supercells do not kill, and those that do kill rarely kill more than a few. The main threat for a supercell is the potential for tornadoes, and a supercell can produce multiple tornadoes in succession in what is called a tornado family, which can, in rare cases, kill dozens. In recent years one tornado family on April 27, 2011 killed 87 people in 3 killer tornadoes, and another on the same day killed 69 people in 6 tornadoes. On May 22, 2011 a supercell killed 158 people, all from a single tornado.

It was the only such tornado to kill more than 20 people. Most were killed in the collapse of what were probably very poorly built homes. Only one possible F2 tornado since 1950 has 10 or more people. That tornado is officially listed as an F1 but was assessed by a leading tornado expert as an F2, crossed Pomona Lake in Kansas on June 17, 1978, capsizing a boat and drowning 16.

A hurricane is generally worse.

However, somewhat paradoxically, a tornado is more dangerous. This is because tornadoes are more violent than hurricanes, are harder to predict, and form much more quickly.
