Why are politicians and news media campaigning on these issues?
https://www.reuters.com/article/us-injuries-pets-idUSTRE52P79H20090326

Roughly 240 Americans wind up in emergency rooms every day for sprains, fractures or other injuries from a fall caused by a dog or cat.
This is nothing to the other fall injuries and deaths relating to falls, slips and related accidents

https://www.who.int/news-room/fact-sheets/detail/falls
WHO estimates - Each year 684 000 individuals die from falls globally of which over 80% are in low- and middle-income countries.

God damn gravity being racist. Let's pass a law which bans gravity and a mandatory requirement to never leave your house unless you meet safety requirements below

Where does this article show a politician campaigning on injuries caused by tripping over pets?

I would also like to point out the WHO in 2022 uses the phrase “both genders”.

As in two out of the two.
