Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) Facts. 1  A urinary tract infection (UTI) is an infection that occurs when bacteria enters into any part of the urinary tract, including the kidneys, ureters, bladder, or urethra.
During 2005â2009, overall, an average of 3,880 persons died from unintentional drowning (including boating incidents) annually in the United States (1.29 deaths per 100,000 population) (Table).
One that jumped out at me is that on any given year, there is one drowning of a child for every 11,000 residential pools in the United States. What this means is that in a country with 6 million pools, roughly 550 children under the age of ten drown each year. Another more recent study not in the book points out that 10 people a day die from drowning in the United States.
