An Earthquake can be far deadlier.

Fore example the Earthquake in Haiti killed over had a death toll over 200,000.

The deadliest tornado in world history (in Bangladesh) killed about 1,300.

Earthquakes when properly prepared for however can be far less damaging than the one in Haiti. Tornados can be far deadlier however, because they cannot be predicted and their paths are random.
