A baby in the United States today
has less chance for survival than in 14
other countries. And the blame can be
placed on poverty—with its concomit-
ants of inadequate nutrition, lack of
education, early pregnancies, illegiti-
macy, and, especially, premature births.
A computerized analysis performed
at George Washington University
shows that less than 2% of all coun-
ties in this country account for Vs of
the excessive mortality rates.
