- The document discusses improving the measurement of maternal mortality rates (MMR) in Mexico by implementing a passive identification system to more accurately count maternal deaths.
- This led to the addition of over 1,000 previously uncounted maternal deaths being added to official statistics.
- While initially controversial, it empowered neglected health areas and improved transparency, credibility, and the culture of health information over the long-term.

As a part of my contribution to Illinois’s Maternal Mortality review process, I was tasked to investigate the maternal mortality review committees, related literature, and other related reports of 26 states, plus Washington D.C. and Illinois. The goal of this project was to give my supervisors and IDPH staff an overview of what has worked, what isn’t working in terms of maternal mortality reduction recommendations in other states. In addition to including incidence rates, racial breakdowns, and other markers, I examined the methods that states used to present their maternal mortality data. The latter refers to graphics selections, terminology, and other creative considerations that might have been used to impact a reader’s connection and understanding of the issue in a state’s report.
It is important to acknowledge that not every state had an existing report. Furthermore, in my analysis I found that even for states with existing maternal mortality review committees, reports were not always readily accessible online. Moreover, every state with an existing review committee do not always have a list of recommendations. Therefore, the following summaries are a couple of examples from my complete 26 state analysis, featured on the states of Louisiana, North Carolina, New Jersey, and Ohio, as they were able to provide a direct list of official recommendations.
Every family deserves to experience a happy and healthy pregnancy. However, approximately 700 pregnant women die each year in the U.S due to pregnancy and complications (CDC, 2018)1. Even more, it is reported that more than half of these deaths are due to preventable factors, such as having access to quality maternal health care (Building U.S. Capacity to Review and Prevent Maternal Deaths, 2018)2.
Severe disparities by race and socioeconomic status plague this public health problem. While maternal mortality can impact women of all backgrounds, women of color, mothers aged 30 years or older, immigrants, and women living in poverty, are populations that are disproportionately affected by this issue (Amnesty International, 2010)3. Why is the mortality rate increasing in various parts of the U.S., even as our advances in technology are rapidly improving? Solutions to this problem might exist both inside the birthing room in the form of safer precautions in hospitals, and may also be related to other factors, including financial barriers and limited knowledge on prenatal care.
Mothers are often the center point of the family. But mothers are also the most undervalued and overworked members of our society. It is high time that we start prioritizing the lives of those who give life to us. As my main project at the Illinois Department of Public Health, Office of Women's Health & Family Services, here is a portion of my state-by-state analysis of maternal mortality prevention recommendations.
1. Pregnancy-related health outcomes are influences by a variety of factors, including healthy weight and diet, risk of cardiovascular disease, previous injuries and complications, and substance abuse.
2. Nine Maternal Mortality Review Committees (MMRC) were tasked to collaboratively collect data from states that together represent 92% of the country’s maternal deaths. These include Colorado, Delaware, Georgia, Hawaii, Illinois, North Carolina, Ohio, South Carolina, and Utah.
3. Addressing the structural barriers to receiving care, also known as the social determinants of health, are important components to preventing maternal deaths.

Verbal autopsy interviews were conducted with caretakers for all deaths of children under the age of 5 in Yucatán, Mexico during 2015-2016. Results from the verbal autopsy were triangulated with data from vital registration systems and medical records to check for concordance at both the individual and population level. Findings suggest that overall the vital registration system for deaths of children under 5 is strong, however concordance between vital registration systems and medical records varies based on cause of death and age of the deceased (neonatal vs. child). This presentation summarizes methods and results for the quality of mortality statistics analysis and was presented at the 2019 Instituto Nacional de Salud Public Conference in Cuernavaca, Mexico in March 2019.
The first phase of the “Under-5 Child Health and Mortality Statistics Project” sough to strengthen the evidence and understanding of key factors related to under-5 mortality in Yucatán, Mexico using Verbal Autopsy data collection tools with an added battery on search for care processes for U5 deaths which occurred in Yucatán during 2015-2016, and the triangulation of Verbal Autopsy reports with data from vital registration systems and medical records. This presentation, presented to stakeholders at a results dissemination workshop in October 2017 in Mérida, Yucatán, provides an overview of the project and summarizes key results and learnings from the research.
The second phase of the “Under-5 Child Health and Mortality Statistics Project” sough to strengthen the evidence and understanding of key factors related to under-5 mortality in Yucatán, Mexico through the implementation and evaluation of both community and facility-based interventions, aimed at improving recognition of alarm signs among mothers and caretakers for common causes of death in children and improving the quality of cause of death certification for deaths of children under 5, respectively. This presentation, presented virtually to stakeholders at a results dissemination workshop in January 2021, provides an overview of the project and summarizes key results and learnings from the research.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.
