According to an USA Today investigation, the United States is the most dangerous country in the developed world to have a baby. Based on their reports, over 50,000 women are injured, and 700 women die each year during childbirth. “Experts say that about 50 percent of the deaths of women from childbirth-related causes could be prevented if they were given better medical care and that’s a really surprising thing given that we’re one of the wealthiest countries in the world and we spend so much on medical care. We’re not just talking about the women who die, we’re talking about 50,000 U.S. women who are suffering life-altering harms,” said USA Today investigator Alison Young.
