@infobeautiful@vis.social @ourworldindata@vis.social So: Eat too much. Don't exercise enough. Too much ultra processed food, chemicals and pesticides. What are the causes of the 7.8% Accidents? How much on the road, power tools, weapons or other?

  • @raymaccarthy@mastodon.ie @infobeautiful@vis.social @ourworldindata@vis.social actually, all of these issues can be boiled down to lack of health care, overwork, economic precarity, environmental hazards out of our control, and a society that's pretty much abandoned disabled and chronically ill people to die. stop blaming individual choices, start blaming institutions

    @raymaccarthy@mastodon.ie @infobeautiful@vis.social @ourworldindata@vis.social Accidents can bleed over into other categories. I know of two coworkers who died commuting that were probably heartattacks/strokes. BTW, when I think about it, commuting has to be the absolute worst way to die. Dying alone or surrounded by strangers far away from home on a journey you did not want to take.
