The airlines should require seat belts be fastened at all times while seated.

Wearing a seat belt will surely reduce the number of injuries.

It's quite possible that nobody was actually sitting with their seat belt undone.

Half of the 12 injured were crew, presumably doing what crew do.

I managed two 14 plus hour flights between Heathrow and Kuala Lumpur without leaving my seat.  Which also remained dry!
