The world's youngest infant mortality rate is less than any other age. UNICEF's report from the United Nations Children's Affairs In the year 2000, children aged less than one crore five years old could die. It came down to 56 million in 2016.
But there is nothing to be excited about this. Because the sub-Sahara of Africa and South Asia have not improved the situation yet. It is said in the report that the average daily death rate of 15 thousand children in the world, which can be prevented.
It is said in the report that if the current rate of infant mortality continues, 3 million newborns will die in the world from 137 to 2030 in 13 years.
The report says that the rate of death of one to five year old child has decreased, the rate of death of newborn (first 28 days after birth) has not decreased. Still, seven thousand newborns die every day in the world.
In 1990, 16 million children died in the world. In the year 2000, children aged less than one crore five years have died. 59 million children died in the world in 2015 In 2016, it has dropped to a further 56 million. Most of them die of malnutrition due to malnutrition, pneumonia, diarrhea or malaria.
Help companies say there are still many jobs left. The goal of the United Nations to reduce the child mortality rate below two-thirds is not achieved yet.
UNICEF Senior Populationist Danjen Yu said, The good news is, the achievement of the world after 1990 is a great achievement in reducing child mortality rate. This result was found in investment in the last decade. But there is much more to be achieved. Under the goal of sustainable development, many countries could not reduce the rate of child mortality in accordance with the promised commitments.
Somalia is the worst case of child mortality. There are 133 children died in every 1,000 children living there. The UK is very good. There are four children in every 1,000 children who die in the world.
Child mortality rate is the highest in South Asia (39 percent). Then there are sub-Saharan regions of Africa (38 percent).
