2023年,一名新西兰幼儿死于盲线,再次呼吁,尽管全球已经证明取得了成功,但没有强制性安全法。 A New Zealand toddler died from a blind cord in 2023, renewing calls for mandatory safety laws absent despite proven global success.

三岁的Tilly Cambie于2023年1月死于新西兰家中一名被绑住的盲人意外勒死,这促使人们再次呼吁制定强制性安全条例。 Three-year-old Tilly Cambie died in January 2023 from accidental strangulation by a corded blind in her New Zealand home, prompting renewed calls for mandatory safety regulations. 验尸官和她的母亲Courtney Cambie强调,现有的公共教育努力是不够的,并列举了2009年至2019年期间因盲线死亡的6名儿童以及自2023年政府磋商以来因盲线死亡的另外2名儿童。 The coroner and her mother, Courtney Cambie, stressed that existing public education efforts are insufficient, citing six child deaths from blind cords between 2009 and 2019 and two more since a 2023 government consultation. 尽管澳大利亚和美国等国家有证据表明有减少死亡人数的条例,但新西兰尚未颁布具有约束力的标准,使家庭易受可预防的悲剧之害。 Despite evidence from countries like Australia and the U.S. showing regulations reduce fatalities, New Zealand has not enacted binding standards, leaving families vulnerable to preventable tragedies.
