"human errors" is rather vague. Does that include pilots violating standards? Bad guidance from ATC? Making a poor call during an emergency? Letting a plane go into service with maintenance violations? Doing maintenance incorrectly?

Yes. And more. After a century of making aviation safe, it's the corner cases, combined with other corner cases, that manage to get through.
