2023年：中国孕产妇死亡率下降10.7%至每10万人15.1人，婴儿死亡率下降16.7%至每10万人4人。 2023: China experiences a 10.7% decline in maternal mortality rate to 15.1 per 100k and a 16.7% drop in infant mortality to 4.
中国国家卫生健康委员会报告称，2023年孕产妇和婴儿死亡率继续下降。 China's National Health Commission reports a continued decline in maternal and infant mortality rates in 2023. 孕产妇死亡率下降10.7%，降至每10万人15.1人；婴儿死亡率下降16.7%，降至每1000人4.5人。 The maternal mortality rate dropped 10.7% to 15.1 per 100,000, while infant mortality rate decreased 16.7% to 4.5 per 1,000. 为此，中国建立了3491个危重孕妇急救中心和3321个新生儿中心。 In response, China has established 3,491 emergency medical centers for critical pregnant women and 3,321 centers for newborns. 然而，由于出生率大幅下降，许多医院已停止提供新生儿接生服务，这引起了在人口迅速老龄化的情况下试图鼓励年轻夫妇生育孩子的政策制定者的担忧。 However, numerous hospitals have ceased providing newborn delivery services due to a significant drop in birth rates, causing concern among policymakers who are trying to encourage young couples to have children amid a rapidly aging population.
