Burgers are ground beef and should never be cooked anything less than well done. Its just not safe. With a steak all the dangerous bacteria is on the surface so you can cook it less. If you grind it you introduce the same bacteria into the inside of the pattie so it far less safe so have medium rare or any less than cooked through burger

I've heard this said many times, and I'm sure there's truth to it. Raw meat needs to be treated carefully because the risk exists.

I'm not sure the risk is as severe as this comment suggests, though since many cultures have a version of raw minced beef like this https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steak_tartare

Tartare is cut from inner muscles, less likely to have any infections etc.

It's also sold separately from ordinary minced meat.

It’s also supposed to be consumed within 15-30 minutes of being prepared if memory serves.

It's also frozen at some point which does kill most of the bacteria
