[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Its true. It has to do with access to prenatal care. Countries that have government run or subsidized healthcare tend do do a little better on the list.[/quote] Yes, and since we've got half our population currently living in poverty or near poverty, MANY women are not getting the prenatal care they need. [/quote] I tend to think it can't just be access to prenatal care. There are women all over the world living in worse conditions, and there isn't that much that really needs to be done prenatally. Yes, vitamins, maybe. But, even with poor nutrition, you can have decent maternal survival. You always hear about women having complications during birth. Vaginal or C-sections. I've had tons of friends who've had issues at birth. How can that be the norm?[/quote]
