The U.S. infant mortality rate (IMR) compares unfavorably to that of other developed countries, ranking 51st in the world in 2013. In the U.S., there are nearly 7 infant deaths during the first year of life per 1000 live births, roughly twice the rate in Scandinavian countries. The U.S. IMR is similar to that of Croatia, despite a three-fold difference in GDP per capita. [nber.org].

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.Right! And the countries that are doing better than us all have some form of a single payer system. But don't try to tell that to Republicans. They'll have a coniption fit, start fulminating about a socialist takeover.

Could be the greedy and the national meal of a humbuger, fries and coke. And expecting a vaccine will give them super human strength.

as opposed to having a real good chance of not living to be even 5 years old 100 years ago or less, but hey, you do you.....
Despite the Big Pharma propaganda that has
been drilled into your head since birth, it turns
out that studies prove that unvaccinated children
are healthier than vaccinated by every metric.
For some reason, injecting 70 shots of toxic
substances in to developing infants tends to
have a negative outcome.
You have lots of opinions, but you are
running short on knowledge and critical thinking
skills. Poke your head outside your bubble
of ignorance, and you may learn something.
