Under five injury in the million deaths study - a podcast by BMJ Group

Brian Johnston, Injury Prevention’s editor, talks to Jagnoor Jagnoor from the George Institute in Australia about this month’s editor’s choice.

India’s million deaths study used cross sectional verbal autopsies to take a snapshot of the main causes of deaths in India - data which are otherwise poorly reported. Jagnoor and colleagues used these data to examine cause of death due to injury in children under five, the results of which are published in Injury Prevention this month.
