Summary

After the Fourth of July fireworks fade, Kansas City hospitals are still reeling — with 33 burn victims, mostly men, treated for injuries from roman candles, artillery shells, and mortar fireworks. Ten were admitted, with wounds ranging from fingers to chests. To speed up care, the burn center launched a “Fast Track” system, sending specialists straight to ERs for quicker treatment. A sobering reminder: the fun’s over, but the aftermath? Still burning.
