Infant Mortality Rate Goes Down By 60%


    Although technology is leading to issues like sexting just as my previous post explains, we can also not ignore the benefits of advancement.

    Experts feel that better technology and medical care has led to 60% decline in infant mortality rate. This means that now lesser babies die before their first birthdays. However, babies born to very young mothers remain at risk.

    In the past three decades, the number of newborns who died within 28 days of birth has fallen by 60% while the number of babies who died between a month and one year has fallen by 68%.

    This is a report on UK but the trend is the same for the developed nations. However, England and Wales still have the highest infant mortality rate in Europe and they are focusing on bringing the number down. For countries like Pakistan where survival is a miracle for all, we can hope God will guide us and give our kids better lives.
