       JAMA devotes special issue to gun violence
       By: agate Date: September 29, 2022, 1:27 am
       ---------------------------------------------------------
       The Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) has
       devoted an entire issue to gun violence in the US. MedPage Today
       (September 27. 2022) gives a rundown on the articles included in
       the issue--"JAMA Devotes Special Issue to Gun Violence":

       Now that JAMA has weighed in with an entire issue on gun
       violence, I don't expect much to change. Yes, gun violence is
       and should be a medical issue. But the time has come for less
       talk and more action, less gathering of statistics (the facts
       are definitely in and have been in for a long time) and more
       real change that will result in a reduction in the number of
       firearms in circulation.

       More statistics are being gathered. This is an article in JAMA
       Network Open (November 29, 2022) by pediatrician researchers at
       Emory University, Brown University, Harvard University, and
       other institutions, "Trends and Disparities in Firearm
       Fatalities in the United States, 1990-2021":
