As of recent statistics, the United States has an Infant Mortality Rate of about 5.4 deaths per 1,000 live births, which is higher than many other developed countries. Factors contributing to this rate include socioeconomic disparities, access to healthcare, and maternal health issues. The U.S. has made strides in reducing infant mortality over the years, but challenges remain, particularly among marginalized communities. Efforts to improve prenatal care and address social determinants of health are crucial for further reducing infant mortality rates.
