Statistics from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention present a worrisome picture for mothers in New York and throughout the United States.

While many developed countries are seeing a declining rate of maternal mortality, in 2015 twenty-six out of every 100,000 pregnant women in the United States were dying. According to these numbers, this puts the United States’ maternal mortality rate is one of the worst of all developed nations.
