Drowning, a leading cause of injury and death among U.S. children and adults, is preventable by taking simple but essential safety precautions, says UCI Health emergency medicine Dr. Isabel Algaze Gonzalez. “Basic swimming skills and adult supervision — especially for children — can make a lifesaving difference.”
