"About 15 per cent of the city's black infant deaths are the result of unsafe sleeping conditions"

I would say abortion is an unsafe condition so that number is probably closer to 74 percent or something.

Fat black women get drunk and/or take drugs, fall asleep and crush their babies. Black boyfriends who are ot the father are driven crazy by a baby that wont shut up and kill the baby.

Thats how.

Racism is killing babies. Climate changey is causing Islamic terrorism....

Well, of course, there can be only one answer: Racism!

Across the U.S., the black infant mortality rate is nearly double the white rate. The gap can't be explained in full by poverty or risky decisions: even high-income, college-educated black women are more likely to give birth prematurely than the average white woman. Some researchers, and many of Milwaukee's experts, believe racism is part of the explanation.

Of course. The article goes on to postulate it's caused by the stress hormone cortisol because these women feeeeeeeeeel like they're being discriminated against. Notice there's no evidence they're being discriminated against, or even an accusation by the women, only speculation they feeeeeeeeel that way.

Every time I think liberals can't become more anti-science bigots they find a way.

We always swaddled our babies and they slept well. Recently found out it was the wrong thing to do.

We also slept with the babies as well.Never crushed em.

My wife still lets the little kids into our bed to pee in it!

That is always comfortable!

Of course (snaps fingers).....it's Evil Whitey.Why even list all those unsafe practices the black people do with their babies?....Evil Whitey is right there....blame Evil Whitey. He's responsible for every problem that has afflicted blacks since time immemorial. lol

SIDS was invented junk science.

Extreme infant mortality in Milwaukee is just part of the black inner-city welfare culture - no white is permitted to comment. The city and county is a Democrat/Socialist stronghold, as it has been since the city was founded.

My parents were afraid of crib death so I slept in the same bed with them. A lot of these deaths are due to child abuse that was covered up or ignored.

I recalled the factoid about the Hispanic infant mortality rate from a decade ago (where in spite of poverty it was at the white level), but looking into it again it seems that there has since grown quite a literature (academic papers) in Public Health trying to explain the discrepancy vis Black rates, not only in infant mortality but in ALL health statistics, general mortality, etc. And there are breakdowns by country of origin too. Cubans in the US have a ridiculously low infant mortality rate, 3/100 vs 5.2/1000 for non Hispanic whites. Even Mexicans are at 4.9/1000. Puerto Ricans drive up the Hispanic rate.
It’s interesting.

Comparable to Gaza means a much lower infant mortality rate that in sub-Saharan Africa.
