| Surveillance for Violent Deaths — National Violent Death Reporting System, 16 States, 2009 |
|
An estimated 50,000 persons die annually in the United States as a result of violence-related injuries. This report summarizes data from CDC’s National Violent Death Reporting System regarding violent deaths from 16 U.S. states for 2009. Violent deaths resulting from self-inflicted or interpersonal violence disproportionately affected adults aged <55 years, males, and certain racial/ethnic minority populations. For homicides and suicides, relationship problems, interpersonal conflicts, mental health problems, and recent crises were among the primary factors that might have precipitated the fatal injuries. |
