It’s Black Maternal Health Week! Let’s keep advocating for our Black Moms #blackmaternalhealth #blackmoms #blackwomen #blackhistory
While the U.S. has 22 maternal deaths for every 100,000 live births, Norway has zero, according to a new report from the Commonwealth Fund.
In Ohio, Black mothers are five times more likely to die from pregnancy-related complications than other mothers.
We have to listen to Black women and improve maternal health care so that every Black mother receives the care she deserves. #BlackMaternalHealth #HealthEquity
Dismissing the U.S. maternal mortality rate by making political references focused on technical definitions ignores the reality of a problem.
It also disregards the most vulnerable populations who need the most help.
