(CNN)Black newborn babies in the United States are more likely to survive childbirth if they are cared for by Black doctors, but three times more likely to die when looked after by White doctors, a study has found. The mortality rate of Black newborns shrunk by between 39% and 58% when Black physicians took charge of the birth, according to the research, which laid bare how shocking racial disparities in human health can affect even the first hours of a person's life.
By contrast, the mortality rate for White babies was largely unaffected by the doctor's race. The findings support previous research, which has shown that, while infant mortality rates have fallen in recent decades, Black children remain significantly more likely to die early than their White counterparts.
Researchers from George Mason University analyzed data capturing 1.8 million hospital births in Florida between 1992 and 2015 for the new study, which was published Monday in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, also known as PNAS. When cared for by White physicians, Black newborns were about three times more likely to die in the hospital than White newborns, the researchers found.

That’s why I think this is a horrifyingly evil story.
What’s so sick about this is somebody spent real time and money to come up with this race baiting “study”. That took real time and effort. It wasn’t just burped up by some useless “journalist” who was writing a quick story while sitting in a Starbucks.
So, there are probably ten times the number of white doctors..I am so sick of this craziness.
Right...
Total BULLSHEET!!!!
Probably Democrat doctors.
Almost certainly correct.
Didn't think of that. Hmm...
Exactly right!
If that's the case then the headline should be more like 'black children with serious health issues more likely to die than healthy kids'
You get what you pay for. If you want really quality propaganda, you gotta pay for it.
These are the same white doctors who won’t prescribe HCQ, maybe. Sounds like a bogus study.
Who on earth would even think of doing a study on something like that?
1953 film with Robert Mitchum and Susan Hayward.
Because prenatal behavior of the mother has no impact.
And there were no Asian or Indian OB-GYNs included in this study? One might conclude someone had an agenda...
Is that before the Dems mandatory abortions of black babies.
western medicine - don’t leave home without it.
What bunch of bullsh*t!
