“…Higher rates of early neonatal deaths are corroborates in other studies. 12,22 This proportional increase may be explained by a decline in late neonatal and post-neonatal mortality rates that have been reduced through simple interventions such as immunization and oral rehydration therapy. 25 Birth weight and prematurity are major risk factors for neonatal mortality.…”
