Trends and disparities in deaths among young persons in the US during the COVID-19 pandemic
CONCLUSIONS: During the COVID-19 pandemic, injury-related causes accounted for the majority of the increases in deaths in children and young adults, driven mainly by firearms, drug overdoses, and motor vehicle traffic crashes.
