Pakistan reports highest global rates for stillbirths and newborn deaths

Every year, Pakistan sees approximately 700,000 stillbirths, which is the highest number in the world. Additionally, the country faces the highest neonatal mortality rate globally, with 42 out of every 1,000 infants passing away during their first month of life. A recent report pointed to significant health obstacles, such as a lack of access to family planning, a high number of unintended pregnancies, and the inability of many to afford nutritious food.
