  1. The average in the UK is 3.8 deaths per year per 1,000 live births. While the Black ethnic group has had the highest infant mortality rate each year with a rate of 6.4 deaths per 1,000 live births. It truly is shocking that one group should experience such different levels of care.

  2. Before we blame the NHS, Doctors and Nurses we need to understand how privatisation, outsourcing and less funding have stripped the NHS of its ability to provide us with care. We have a staff shortage of over 100,000 in the NHS and the Tory government is responsible as they are trying to enforce stealth-privatisation by crippling the NHS. This story is just the tip of the iceberg, the crisis in the NHS is due to the government. The same government that spent £37 billion on the failure of the test and trace system that lined the pockets of private corporations and shareholders instead of allowing the NHS to do its job with the funding required to do so.

  5.  @AnnaMorris411  Systemic racism is a problem in the US and I've had many debates regarding this, there is a lot of denial and blame games. Not just in the health system but also in every aspect of life, especially the justice system. It also exists here in the UK but is not so pronounced systemically. Although it is very similar in infant mortality rates. The average in the UK is 3.8 deaths per year per 1,000 live births. While the Black ethnic group has had the highest infant mortality rate each year with a rate of 6.4 deaths per 1,000 live births. It truly is shocking that one group should experience such different levels of care.
