NEJM.org, 50.2% were killed with other than firearms, also the study talks about the prevelance of illicit drugs and alcohol;
NEBI, only uses deaths when firearms are used, ie, if a firearm is used and intruder only wounded this is disregarded;
Annemergmed, my question is why were the ER guards armed in the first place? Also, the study showed that the number one source of guns in a hospital were used in the most cases, shocking I know;
Aje, Blacks and those under 35 were over sampled, ie, counted more than once, the two groups with the largest
number of gun violence were over sampled, also, Violent deaths, whether from suicide or homicide, were excluded, respectively, from the “other causes of death” category, ie, if you didn't die peaceful and didn't fit the death by gun, your death was excluded;
Also, the NY Times article was an opinion piece.
