TTC Extra: Rise in Infant Mortality

Season 32

About the Episode

In 2022, U.S. infant mortality rose by 3%, the first in two decades. Neonatal and postneonatal rates increased by 3-4%, particularly in states with near-total abortion bans. Experts attribute this to challenges in maternity care, abortion access, hospital closures, racial disparities, and legal decisions, including the Supreme Court overturning Roe v. Wade.
