CDC data

Children aged 1-4 years:

- Accidents (unintentional injuries); 8.5/100k

Children aged 5-9 years:

- Accidents (unintentional injuries); 4.1/100k

Children aged 10-14 years:

- Accidents (unintentional injuries); 4.3/100k

Children aged 15-19 years:

- Accidents (unintentional injuries); 23.6/100k

Accidents are the leading cause of death, no?
