Original Note:
The statistic Gavin Newsom is using refers to individuals of age up to 19 as children. However, the US recognizes adult age to be 18. https://usafacts.org/data-projects/child-death Without these 19 year old individuals, statistics show that the leading cause of death among children is congenital abnormalities. https://www.statesman.com/story/news/politics/politifact/2022/06/07/fact-check-firearms-leading-cause-death-children/7529783001/
