The Texas elementary school shooting, which left 19 children and two adults dead, came just 10 days after the events in Buffalo, New York, where 10 people were gunned down in a supermarket.

It is also the 213th mass shooting in the U.S. in 2022, according to a database run by Gun Violence Archive (GVA). The nonprofit research group views an incident as a mass shooting if four or more people are shot, wounded or killed, excluding the gunman.

With just over 19 weeks into the year, the 213 mass shootings average out to about 10 such attacks a week.
