The Center for Disease Control that launches the drowning team makes this workers’ day more worrying

The weekend on Labor Day is one of the most bloody weekend holidays for drowning and water -related tragedies. But with The last shooting of centers for control of diseases and prevention of drowningThey lose Americans a major source of information that helps save lives.

Data research and strangeness pays our programs in Coalition for the prevention of national drowning, So far, the Center for Disease Control Drowning team She played a decisive role in our efforts. The agency and the team helped us understand who is better drowning, as they drown and why, so that we can develop effective programs to prevent drowning. For this reason, we find that it is pleasant that the drowning team was Her work was recently shot and immediately stopped.

It is just as much as to hear that the entire program appears to be it Missing.

This alleged effort to reduce costs will have a rippal effect across the entire water safety community. An unlimited field has already lost some of our most amazing leaders and reaching data that can help us save lives. When a person looks at the disturbing drowning statistics in the country and the truth of that The drowning costs the American economy more than 50 billion dollars a yearAccording to the account of the Disease Control Center, these reductions are meaningless.

Drowning is a silent, universal epidemic, but it can be prevented. We have information from the Disease Control Center that every year, the United States loses more than 4000 people of all ages and all kinds of water to unintended drowning. Drinking is the main cause of death for children between 1 to 4 and remains a major cause of death for older children, adolescents and adults.

We must be concerned about the last CDC statistics that show that between 2019 and 2022, was there 28 % increase in drowning accidents between children between 1-4 And an increase of 19 % among the elderly aged between 65-74. Between 2019 and 2021, there was 28 % increase in black drowning rates. Americans or Alaska Americans had higher drowning rates than any other race or other ethnic group, and blacks had the second highest drowning rates.

According to a study conducted in 2017 from the University of Colombia, Children with autism are 160 times more likely to pass From the general population in children. These discreet statistics are not just numbers; They are their loved ones in the tragedies that can be prevented and the representation of families and societies that were severely affected by this drowning.

We sincerely believe that it is important to increase federal resources to research and prevent drowning. In this way, water safety advocates working throughout the United States will have data, research and strategies based on evidence needed to provide water safety education programs and the prevention of drowning. We will continue to work together to prevent drowning so that all people have knowledge and skills to enjoy water safety. We, personally, do this work in honor of those who were lost and influenced by drowning.

Another weekend of the weekend is another reminder of the importance of individuals and families while knowing the integrity of the basic water.

Fortunately, drowning can be prevented. Unfortunately, there is no single solution to prevent drowning, so we recommend using layers of protection. Here are some simple water safety tips to share with your family and friends so that you can enjoy while they are safer in all kinds of water and water environments around and around.
