In many countries, drowning is one of the leading causes of death for children under 12 years old. For example, in the United States, it is the second leading cause of death (after motor vehicle crashes) in children 12 and younger. Children have drowned in wading pools and even bath tubs. The rate of drowning in populations around the world varies widely according to their access to water, the climate and the national swimming culture. Typically the United States suffers 6,500 drownings annually or around 1 per 50,000 of population. Drowning related injuries are the fifth most likely cause of accidental death in the US. Most drownings occur in water, 90% in freshwater (rivers, lakes and pools) and 10% in seawater. Drownings in other fluids are rare and are often related to industrial accidents.
Please keep water safety in mind especially the use of personal floatation devices (life jackets) as we enjoy the water here at Lake Cumberland and remember as the sign says “Kid’s Don’t Float”.
