There will be tons of safe and legal fireworks shows going off this summer across New Jersey and so there shouldn’t be any such occurrences in your backyards due to the inherent dangers.
Dr. Harry Kopolovich, M.D., M.B.A, FAAEM, FAEMS, Chairman, Department of Emergency Medicine at Jersey Shore University Medical Center, says thousands of people, many of them children and teenagers, get injured around the use of consumer fireworks.
“Despite the dangers of the fireworks, few people understand the associated risks which include devastating burns, other injuries including blast injuries, fires, and even death,” Kopolovich said.
