Sweden: People Treated For Gunshot Wounds Up 20 Per Cent in 2018

Sweden: People Treated For Gunshot Wounds Up 20 Per Cent in 2018: The number of people in Sweden treated for gunshot wounds soared 20 per cent in 2018 and has more than doubled compared to 2012.

The statistics from the Swedish National Board of Health and Welfare patient register show that in 2018 a total of 148 people were treated with gunshot injuries, 26 more than the previous year, Sveriges Radio reports.

According to the board, the statistics do not reflect those who had died as a result of gunshots and died at the scene of the shootings.
