What is the Newborn Mortality Rate like in Kosovo? What are the typical causes of Infant Death - Baby Deaths?
I decided to go ahead and do some research on this. According to the United Nations Children's Fund or "UNICEF" for short, I've collected some statistics as follows:
* Kosovo has a very high fertility rate while having the poorest maternal and child vital indicators in Europe.
* The infant mortality rate is estimated at between 35 to 49 per every 1,000 live births.
* The mortality rate for children under 5 is estimated at 69 per 1,000 births.
*Both rates are at least twice as high as those of neighboring countries.
