At a critical moment, passers -by Zhou Hongbo decisively laid off the water to save people. The children were all saved, but Zhou Hongbo never returned ...

According to statistics from Jimu Journalists, there are as many as 10 adolescent drowning incidents from media reports since June.

In 2021, the data released by the China Centers for Disease Control and Prevention showed that drowning was the first killer to cause accidental death of primary and secondary school students. Each year, more than 80%are open waters in the wild.

The "2018 Chinese Children's Development Indicators" also shows that drowning has become the first cause of death and death of children aged 0-17 in my country, accounting for 32.5%of children's damage and death; road traffic damage is the second cause, accounting for children's injury and death 29.0%.

The Global Drowning Report released by the World Health Organization in 2014 also confirmed that 372,000 people died of drowning every year worldwide, about 42 people died per hour, and the drowning rate of low -income countries was compared to high -income countries. More than three times.

This is not a friendly figure. The report shows that the age is one of the main factors of drowning death. More than half of the world's drowning deaths are less than 25 years old. Children in the age of 1-4 have the highest mortality rate. The old youth.

Most of the accidents are left -behind children

Why do these drowning children step into the river and ponds?

"Most of the drowning incidents occurred outside the school. Most of these drowning teenagers were about 14 years old." Li Xingfu, deputy captain of the Yunnan Blue Sky Rescue Corps and an expert in drowning, said that the occurrence of drowning accidents is inseparable from the negligence of parents' negligence. Essence

According to statistics from Li Xing, most of the areas of drowning incidents are rural, urban and rural areas, and most of the children in the incident are left -behind children. "Because there is no swimming pool in the countryside, children's desire for swimming knowledge can only be satisfied from the river and ponds." Li Xingfu said.

"The lack of safety awareness at home is an important reason for drowning." Xiong Bingqi, an educational scholar and dean of the 21st Century Education Research Institute, also said that there have been multiple students drowning since the summer of this year, which is distressed.

At the same time, Xiong Bingqi believes that it is necessary to think about the safety management and monitoring of rural children.

"This problem has been raised, and it has not been effectively resolved." Xiong Bingqi said that some rural left -behind children were monitored by relatives such as grandparents, and the elderly slipped out of the water without paying attention to the child, causing the accident.

"When we are conducting anti -drowning education, we will say that these left -behind children are special groups." Li Xingfu said that this is not discrimination, but these children have strong appeal and parental management is relatively relaxed. Therefore, when many accidents occur, these children take the lead in launching.

Li Xingfu said that this had to mention drowning education for teenagers.

If there are swimming pools in the countryside

"After the summer, we will conduct anti -drowning education." Teacher Xu of Yishan Village Middle School told Jimu Journalists that drowning education is mostly slogan promotion and parent education. However, Teacher Xu also said frankly that this kind of publicity is limited, and every few years, the news of students drowning during the summer will still be heard.

"The slogan is not weak." Li Xing said that carried out anti -drowning education should not be just a matter for the education department. He believes that emergency bureaus, water bureaus, village committees, water management units and social institutions should assume the publicity of drowning education. "I asked some principals of middle school at a meeting of drowning education, do you know how many hidden dangers drowning points are there within one kilometer of your school?" Li Xingfu said that these tasks should be done before drowning accidents, such as safety facilities, such as safety facilities, such as safety facilities, such as safety facilities, such as safety facilities, such as safety facilities, such as safety facilities Settings and warning signs.

Xiong Bingqi also mentioned that to fundamentally reduce student drowning accidents, it is necessary to combine the nature of young people like to play water, build a standard swimming pool in rural areas, free or low fees (maintain basic management and maintenance costs) to teen Swimming. A swimming pool of each rural construction should be used as a practical project for rural construction. It not only provides children with swimming, but also can rely on the swimming pool to use swimming as a compulsory course for school sports, allow students to learn to swim, and exercise while mastering the swimming skills while exercising the swimming skills. Body. Xiong Bingqi said that as early as 2017, there were provinces such as Hainan in my country, and they launched swimming teaching in primary and secondary schools through the government. Incorporating swimming into primary and secondary school courses has become a compulsory course for primary and secondary school students. Through this, students are supplemented with shortcomings that students cannot swim and enhance students' physical fitness. However, this approach also caused controversy. Opponents believe that there are no conditions for swimming in some places, allowing students to swim lessons for students may increase the burden on rural children; in addition, learning to swim does not truly reduce drowning accidents, and some students will go to the wild river channel on the grounds of swimming to the wild river channel. Swimming, the accident occurred.

Disputes point to the lack of swimming teaching facilities and conditions to rural areas. If there is a swimming pool in rural areas, it can not only solve the problem of swimming teaching venues, but also provide a place for students to swim in daily swimming. In this regard, some villages in my country have begun to move. According to reports, since the summer of last year, in Qixian Mountain Village, Mitsui Town, Xintian County, Hunan Province, the villagers spontaneously raised funds for the open -air swimming pool, which became the water park of children. The swimming pool is located in a gentle river channel with an area of ​​about 200 square meters and a depth of about 90 cm. The bottom of the pool is hardening, and the street lights, canopy and simple dressing room are installed. The emergence of the swimming pool allows children not to take advantage of the parents (guardians) to go to the wild river to swim, which effectively reduces the chance of drowning accidents.

"When our rescue team conducts anti -drowning education on campus, some pictures will not be treated with mosaic treatment, and they will show them directly to parents." Li Xingxing said that these bloody education can fundamentally touch parents and children. However, both Li Xingfu and Xiong Bingqi believe that the education of drowning is still long -term.
