Wasn't this debunked before as a function of foreign hospitals reporting any infant death within a certain period after birth as a stillbirth while US hospitals would report a live birth and then an infant death? I will do a little research in a bit...

and yet... whenever some dictator gets sick where do they come for medical care? the US.
This article is BS.

The researchers also said lack of national health insurance and short maternity leaves likely contribute to the poor U.S. rankings. If we're tied with England, how did these geniuses determine that lack of national health care was the problem?

I'm getting about sick of these idiotic studies that insult our intelligence all to drive an agenda of national healthcare.
The high infant mortality rate can be linked directly to the crack whores, and I don't want to become any more financially responsible for their bad decisions than I already am.
Certainly not all infants who die are the offspring of drug addicts, but a truthful look at it would show that a sizeable percentage are, IMO.

In the United States, researchers noted that the population is more racially and economically diverse than many other industrialized countries, making it more challenging to provide culturally appropriate health care.What's "culturally appropriate" health care? Voodoo priestesses and medicine men?

The strongest predictor of infant mortality is an unmarried mother. With a rapidly-increasing illegitimacy rate, of course we have higher infant mortality as well.
