I’m guessing it’s any death when a leftie is using right handed equipment, even though deaths would have happened anyways. However, if they counted how much higher it is than it would be for righties statistically, I could accept that some dangerous equipment is slightly more dangerous with the wrong handle (like chainsawing).
But also, I remember that texting while driving deaths statistics were inflated because they just included any time a phone had been on within several minutes of an accident, regardless of circumstances.
Honestly from my experience this could be chainsaws alone. They’re by far the worst thing I’ve come across as a lefty and I’m fairly ambi. Most other chiral two handed power tools either don’t matter as much or can trivially be swapped around like angle grinders, trimmers, etc.
