A league table of child deaths by injury in rich nations

The report ranks OECD countries according to their child injury death rates for children aged 1 to 14. In a field of 26, New Zealand comes in at place 22. Only the United States, Portugal, Mexico and Korea fare worse than New Zealand. At the other end of the table Sweden, followed by the UK, Italy and the Netherlands are doing the best. New Zealand has over double the rate of child injury deaths of each of these four countries. This report lists the 'key findings' and makes a number of important recommendations.
