The rates of maternal and neonatal death have been dropping around the world since 2000. That's great news - but since 2016, rates of maternal deaths have remained stagnant. We have to do better. I interviewed Melinda French Gates at the 2023 Goalkeepers conference, which focuses on neonatal and maternal health. Goalkeepers is an organization that keeps tabs on the 17 Sustainable Development Goals set by the United Nations in 2015 (links below), and this year's report & conference is all about maternal and neonatal health. Watch my previous video for a full breakdown of the data and what we can do to make an impact. #Goalkeepers2030 #GoalkeepersPartner #maternalmortality Watch next: We need to talk about maternal mortality: https://youtu.be/lTZ0lsMAaFM?si=8bKs9359gbMDHXCC References: Goalkeepers 2023 Report: https://www.gatesfoundation.org/goalkeepers/report/2023-report/ United Nations' 17 Sustainable Development Goals: https://sdgs.un.org/goals Postpartum hemorrhage bundle research: https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa2303966 Treating sepsis with azithromycin research: https://www.nejm.org/doi/10.1056/NEJMoa2212111 Maternal mortality in the United States: https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/article-abstract/2806661 Become a channel Membryo to connect & access perks! https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrPhcbDwqWRc-3tteE2BS6g/join MDJ Secret Second Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCAkrMPc856DvoxX99IyGYmw I stream on Twitch weekly (usually Sundays): https://www.twitch.tv/mamadoctorjones - Playlist of full-length Twitch streams for channel membryos: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLVH2Gpf8wKeRO7TL3vfzJkfsF9eHmQGkP FOLLOW ME ON SOCIAL: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mamadoctorjones Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/mamadoctorjones TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mamadoctorjones ** The information in this video is intended to serve as educational information and is not intended or implied to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis or treatment.
