I’m surprised at how high homicide rates are for young people. It makes sense as young people are more likely to be the victim of perpetrator of violence and less likely to die of natural causes, but still it’s so high on the list (albeit far lower than the first cause)

Suicide is the second leading cause of death for kids 10-14
That’s f’d up

Very interesting data, but I hate the infographic at the top. A stacked bar with the remaining causes past Top10 rolled into ‘other’ would be much easier to understand how the cause frequencies relate to each other quantitatively.

Too many age categories (20 to about 50 would be fine). Putting the percentages in those big boxes gives them too much distracting prominence. A more usual symbol for covid would be helpful.

I always wonder in these stats, how much of “unintentional injuries” is car accidents? It has to be the majority, right?

Crazy how influenza is not in the top 10 for 45yo and above (it is for younger age groups) but COVID-19 is
