Newly born babies need special and extra ordinary care to
survive and pass through the initial stages of life. Parents do their best to
protect their babies but in many countries, parents are not lucky enough to keep
their babies alive, as these countries have the highest infant mortality rates.
Let’s have a look on Insider Monkey’s article with the list of ten countries
with highest infant mortality rates.
The most vulnerable age for kids is between the time of
their birth and until the age of 5. This is the time when your child is most at
risk of developing diseases that may prove out to be fatal or leave your kid
affected permanently throughout the rest of his life. It might sound scary but
more than 9 million children die annually in the world, and that too before turning five. The worst
part is that more than 98% of these cases get reported in developing countries,
where the healthcare structure is often the poorest.
There are various reasons for high mortality rates that may
include premature births, infections, birth injuries, complications during the
time of delivery and many others. Another common factor that has a major impact
on mortality rates of any country is the weight of the baby at the time of
birth. To read more, please visit 10 Countries with Highest Infant Mortality Rates.
