About 20% of the world uses 110-120 V and 60Hz. The rest uses mostly 240V at 50Hz.
Although 110V is safer, the US seems to ignore many of the safety features I see used elsewhere in the world.
How that translates to deaths per million people per year comparing to similarly rich countries, I don't know.
