This CBC reporter is looking for someone to interview for a story on infant mortality in Canada -- looks like someone who lost a child -- can anyone help? Or is there really outside the ethical realm? dennis ________________________________________ From: Yvette Brend <[log in to unmask]> Sent: Friday, March 10, 2023 12:08 PM To: Dennis Raphael Subject: urgent Does the infant mortality tally only count infants that die after a live birth? What about stillborn infants? I have found an incredible woman to tell her story, but she lost her infant at 18 weeks -- stillborn.

By 2005, Canada had improved that to 5.3/1000, a significant achievement, but that decline failed to match the pattern in other OECD nations — so much so that Canada’s ranking over that period fell from tenth to twenty-fourth. The infant mortality rate is now 4.5/1000, an improvement in absolute terms, but now our rank is a dismal thirtieth of thirty-eight OECD nations.
