While maternal mortality rates have decreased around the world, new findings show that they are increasing in the US, particularly for black women Roughly 700 American women die each year due to pregnancy or childbirth complications, according to the CDC.
The study found that women’s mortality rates have not decreased in New York despite concerted efforts. One of the study’s authors, Dr. Taraneh Shirazian, spoke with “Morning Joe First Look” co-hosts Yasmin Vossoughian and Ayman Mohyeldin about the findings.
“What we found was that hospitals are doing some programs to reduce maternal mortality, and there are programs being done in the community as well, but they’re not being linked up,” said Shirazian, who works as director of Global Women’s Health at NYU’s College of Global Public Health. “They’re not offering us the maximum benefits in terms of reduction in New York…maternal mortality rates have not decreased.”“It’s extremely alarming,” said Shirazian.
