A member asked:
Why are infant mortality rates so low in other countries but not in the u.s.?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Statistics: information is gathered in many different ways; it is nearly impossible to compare health information from so many different systems; what is called a miscarriage in one country may be called fetal demise in another and infant death in a third; too bad no one can agree on definations
