Guns kill or injure 19 children per day in the US
Of all the children killed by guns in high-income countries, 91 percent are from US.
Nearly 1,300 children aged 0 to 17 are killed by gunshots each year in the US, and nearly 5,800 more suffer from non-lethal gunshot wounds, researchers estimate in a study published Monday in Pediatrics.
