UN statistics show that the death toll of children under the age of five in 2021 has dropped to 5 million, which was a special achievement. Although the number of dead children born was about 19 lakhs, including a slight deficit.
Members of the UNIFSE and the World Health Organization (WHO) and Inter-Agency Natwork-Aig have warned of a serious situation that children’s lives have been in danger due to the challenges and regional discrimination of regional discrimination.
“Millions of children are survived today because of global commitment to vaccine, nutrition, clean water and basic hygiene national systems,” said Unisf’s executive director Catherine Russeil.
He said, “This is a significant achievement for children’s mortality to record the mortality. But the benefits of hard work, we are at risk of losing the right policy options and losing adequate investment … we cannot let it happen.”
Children’s lives can be saved
Statistics show that almost half of children under the age of five died in the first month of life. The main reason behind this was the premature birth and complexity during delivery.
In children who have passed childhood, infectious diseases can be stopped – such as pneumonia, malaria and diarrhea death.
Experts say that it is important to improve access to high quality maternal, newborns and child health care in preventing death.
Regional discrimination
Wherever children are born, this factor greatly affects the possibilities of their survival.
In lower -income countries, necessary services, vaccines and treatment are often difficult, which causes unequal high death.
Regional hypothesis
Sub-Sahara Africa recorded the maximum mortality rate of children under the age of five, 69 of every one thousand living births.
On the other hand, the same image was four in Europe and 6 in North America. 26 dies in Asia, it was estimated that in Latin America and the Caribbean region 1 16 and Oceania 1 died.
Similar discrimination has been found at the rate of dead children.
Money
Financial cuts for life -effective child programs are worsening existing discrimination.
In the absence of resources, lack of healthcare workers, clinics shutdown, obstruction of vaccinations, and necessary supplies such as malaria treatment.
Countries affected by the humanitarian crisis are particularly affected. These countries are facing heavy debt burdens or already high infant deaths.
WHO Director General Doctor Tadras Adhenam Ghebrisus emphasized the need to increase the need for children’s lives and immediate cooperation to protect their health.
He said, “To prevent dead birth with malaria and to ensure children-based care, we can change millions of families.”
