The main way we avoid loss of life is through warnings, which give people a chance to get to a safer place. Some buildings and homes in tornado-prone regions have tornado shelters that are nearly impossible for a tornado to penetrate. Some homes are build with structural enhancements including hurricane ties to hold the roof in place, closely spaced supports to strengthen the walls, and anchor bolts to secure a house to its foundation more firmly than other attachments.

Why are people most affected by tornadoes?

Because they are not very heavy, therefore being easily lifted off the ground and thrown about. Although, to be fair, they aren't the MOST affected, as all smaller animals than humans can be more easily lifted and thus are more affected than people are. The exception to this being birds, because they fly and are usually able to avoid the path of a tornado. Large animals on the other hand, like cows or giraffes, are not as affected because their weight provides more resistance to the tornadoes.
