Cash -free society has made it much easier to pay for goods to many citizens. But there has also been another advantage that you may not have thought – a dramatic reduction in coins in the number of children in the swallow or in the nose.
Because there are fewer coins around the home due to the introduction of digital fees today, children are much less likely to pop in their mouths, an act that in some cases can lead to a hospital.
Recently, the analysis of the Royal College of England magazine and the Associated Press reported that the number of children in England decreased a significant invoice that requires hospital procedures to dismantle points and other respiratory objects.
Researchers have studied English hospital information for more than 22 years since 2000, focusing on objects that have been removed from the age of 14.
The information showed that depreciation is a “significant decline” since 2012 – the same year, unrelated charges really began to rise in the UK
Over the next 10 years, until 2022, researchers found a 29%decline in 2,405 cases in 2012 1,716 three years ago.
“Our research shows that the use of cash -free payment methods instead of coins has helped to keep children safe and reduce the need for surgery,” said Akash Janga, the leading author of the study. “This unintentional observation proves that changes we live can affect human health.”
While research findings are, of course, welcome, it is important to keep in mind that there are other dangerous objects for curious children, the first answer of which by grabbing something new is to attach it to their mouths.
In fact, as the use of gadgets is growing over the years, coins have been replaced, for example, by button batteries as a potential danger. Other common objects that children usually enjoy include jewelry, nails, marble and toys or toys.
A study conducted by the US Children’s Hospital, which examined the data for a 20 -year period, revealed that the most commonly enjoyed coin in the United States was the most commonly enjoyed coin. The quarters were the second most common, and its larger size, which led to larger hospitalization among swallowed children.
