Serious subway injuries are devastating to their young victims and have high rates of mortality and amputation. We identified the urban population at greatest risk for subway injuries and investigated the influence of local economies on injury rates. We propose using changes in social conditions as a "trigger" for increased vigilance and protective measures at times of higher risk.
严重的地铁事故对年轻受害者来说是毁灭性的,且死亡率和截肢率很高。我们确定了地铁事故风险最高的城市人口,并调查了当地经济对事故发生率的影响。我们建议将社会状况的变化作为一个“触发因素”,以便在风险较高时提高警惕并采取保护措施。
