Legitimately a worthless article. They explain why right at the beginning. Before their further asinine 5 reasons.

Age is an enormous predictor of death risk by falls. From about age 40 onward, the annual death rate from falls increases by roughly 9–10% for each additional year of age. And people older than 65 grew from 12.4% of the US population in 2000 to 17.6% in 2023.

It’s literally right there. They called it the “baby boom” for a reason. The population is way older.
