How many people drown every year?

  • In 2004, there were 3,308 unintentional drownings in the United States, an average of nine people per day.(CDC 2006)

    U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention

  • In 2004, of all children 1-4 years old who died, 26% died from drowning (CDC 2006). Fatal drowning remains the second-leading cause of unintentional injury-related death for children ages 1 to 14 years (CDC 2005)

    U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention

  • It is estimated that for each drowning death, there are 1 to 4 nonfatal submersions serious enough to result in hospitalization. Children who still require cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) at the time they arrive at the emergency department have a poor prognosis, with at least half of survivors suffering significant neurologic impairment.

    American Academy of Pediatrics

  • 19% of drowning deaths involving children occur in public pools with certified lifeguards present.

    Drowning Prevention Foundation

  • A swimming pool is 14 times more likely than a motor vehicle to be involved in the death of a child age 4 and under.

How does the 2011 birth rate contribute to the Philippines population growth rate?

Given that the population of the Philippines is already estimated at 100 000 000 this year 2011, and the birth rate is at 25 per 1000 and death rate is at 5 per 1000 of the population. That would mean 250 000 births and 50 000 deaths per year. It is a wide gap. This means that there's an extreme growth in the population every year, and with this there should be considerations for the amount of natural resources and other basic needs to be met for the 200 000 human beings being added every year. That gives you a picture of how the birth rate then contributes to the Philippine population growth.
