This is a very sad statistics at the end of first quarter of he 21st century! Can we not do better!
Lower child mortality rates in combination with better availability and acceptance of contraceptives would probably reduce world population growth. Think about it!
"In total, more than 5.0 million children under age 5, including 2.3 million newborns, along with 2.1 million children and youth aged 5 to 24 years – 43 per cent of whom are adolescents – died in 2021. This tragic and massive loss of life, most of which was due to preventable or treatable causes, is a stark reminder of the urgent need to end preventable deaths of children and young people."
