I noticed this while listening to music, but it seems to be similar in other media such as twitch streams. You would think that such an important would be mentioned a lot because it affects everyone, but it seems to be strongly avoided.

Here are some possibilities I can think of:
It’s a sensitive topic because it’s so deadly, so people try not to sully the mood by mentioning it for no reason, especially if it’s media for entertainment like a Twitch stream or music
If they’re on platforms like YouTube, mentioning it might get their content demonetized or removed, even if it doesn’t spread misinformation. If they’re signed with a record label, publisher or even a sponsor, they might specifically not be allowed to mention any sensitive topics.
They’re trying to avoid attracting crazy commenters, like the people who think it’s a hoax or the vaccine is designed to install microchips in people or something (this might because they don’t want to give those a people an excuse to spread their propaganda, but could also be out of selfishness so as not to lose viewers that think that way)

Why don’t they disabled comments ? A lot of channels do this…

Even if you disabled likes, comments, everything, the crazies might just link to your video on wherever they congregate (I’m guessing mostly Facebook and Parler), and could even start spamming your other videos with fake information. They’re fucking relentless.
I’ve since found that arguing with people that do this is like arguing with a rock. A particularly stubborn rock at that.
