Could anyone suggest whether following sentence is wrong:
Covid-19 presents stark choices between life, death and the economy.
This I found in The Economist.
This sentence is correct as it is.
Let's consider this structure first
Covid-19 presents stark choices between X and Y.
What is X in the original sentence?
life, death. As per the original sentence
life,death is treated as one entity.What is Y in the original sentence?
The economy. So, the sentence is correct as it is.
Below is the link to a short video on usage of between and among on GMAT.

the sentence written as below migh have justified usage of between.
Covid-19 presents stark choices between the life and death and the economy.
