infant mortality
Newborn death rate
Infant mortality is the death of children before their first birthday, measured as a rate per thousand live births.
The infant mortality rate serves as a key indicator of a population's overall health and access to medical care.
The country's infant mortality has dropped dramatically since the 1950s.
