Maternal deaths in childbirth rise in the U.S.

Maternal deaths related to childbirth in the United States are nearly at the highest rate in a quarter century, and a woman giving birth in America is now more likely to die than a woman giving birth in China, according to a new study.

The United States is one of just eight countries to see a rise in maternal mortality over the past decade, said researchers for the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation at the University of Washington in a study published in The Lancet, a weekly medical journal. The others are Afghanistan, Greece, and several countries in Africa and Central America.

The researchers estimated that 18.5 mothers died for every 100,000 births in the U.S. in 2013, a total of almost 800 deaths. That is more than double the maternal mortality rate in Saudi Arabia and Canada, and more than triple the rate in the United Kingdom.

The study was the latest to underscore a steep rise in pregnancy-related deaths in the U.S. since at least 1987, when the mortality rate was 7.2 per 100,000 births. The U.S. experienced a sharp spike in 2009 that the Centers for Disease Control attributed to the H1N1 influenza pandemic. The rate has dipped slightly since then, said Nicholas Kassebaum, the lead physician in the University of Washington study, but it remains stubbornly high.

6 Reasons Americans Should Stop Obsessing Over the Threat of Terrorist Attacks

Here are the other things that proved more fatal to Americans than terrorism last year:

1. Child Flu Deaths: During the 2012-2013 flu season, the CDC logged 149 pediatric deaths from the ailment.

2. Deaths During Childbirth: Researchers writing in the medical journal Lancet estimated that nearly 800 mothers died during childbirth last year, making our maternal mortality rate three times as high as the United Kingdom's.

3. Workplace Deaths: According to the Occupational Safety & Health Administration, “4,405 workers were killed on the job in 2013...(3.2 per 100,000 full-time equivalent workers)—on average, 85 a week or more than 12 deaths every day.”

4. Ordinary Gun Violence: In 2013, more people died every day from ordinary gun violence than from terrorism—with about 30 people being shot and killed each day, according to Slate. The majority of gun deaths are suicides.

The GOP is at full throttle to close "abortion clinics". These clinics supply the most basic care to women, from mammograms, family planning and birth control and so much more for a woman's wellness. Do not deny them that right. Do not give them health care at 77 cents on the dollar that a man gets.

Are you voting in 2014? I am and I am voting for the Democratic candidate all the way! I am.

Emphasis in OP.

Someone help me out here.

If fewer abortuariums id the SOLE cause of higher maternal death rates then doesn't this mean that pregnancy alone is the issue?

Are we now at a place that only a 0 pregnancy rate is acceptable?

I'd love to see a breakdown on race. Is some of the increase due to the influx of poor illegal immigrants? Is it due to more deaths in low income areas?

Does it include those women that died  during or after an abortion?

For all their hatred of Rush, the libs continue to prove him right. He's been pointing out for years that the feminazis "final solution" is to ensure every pregnancy ends in an abortion. When a child is born, it's evidence of a failure on behalf of a woman's right to have an abortion.

So to answer your question, the only sure way to keep those "nearly 800 mothers" alive is for them to have an abortion. Anything else is a form of misogyny.
