UnfairRepresent 02/21/18 2:46:25 PM #1:	Japan tops the world as the country with the lowest rate of newborn mortality in 2016, followed by Iceland and Singapore, while Pakistan is the riskiest place to be born according to a new UNICEF report launched on Tuesday. "Japan, Iceland and Singapore are the three safest countries in which to be born, as measured by their newborn mortality rates," the report, called "Every Child Alive," said. "Babies born in Japan stand the best chance of surviving," it said, reporting a 1 in 1,111 risk of death for newborns in the country, followed by Iceland with a 1 in 1,000 risk and Singapore at 1 in 909. On the other hand, it reported that "children born in Pakistan face the worst odds" with a 1 in 22 chance of death. According to the 33-page report, the risk of dying as a newborn varies widely with location of birth. Annually, some 2.6 million babies die before turning a month old, with roughly one million of them dying on the day of birth. An additional 2.6 million babies each year are stillborn. Eight of the 10 countries with the highest newborn mortality rates are in sub-Saharan Africa. Following Pakistan, the Central African Republic and Afghanistan are the second and third most risky places to be born, respectively. "Japan has tackled this issue of every child alive historically and we have heavily invested our government resources and knowledge to solve this problem," Japan's Deputy Ambassador to the United Nations Yasuhisa Kawamura told an audience attending the New York launch of the report. He also stressed the importance his country places on ensuring other nations are not left behind, referring to a global push to improve the lives of millions around the globe while placing special emphasis on the most vulnerable such as infants, whom he said need the greatest level of protection. "Most of all, newborns die because they are poor," said Henrietta Fore, UNICEF's executive director in New York. "Babies born to the poorest families are more than 40 percent more likely to die in the newborn period than the babies in the richest families." Despite the fact that roughly 7,000 newborn babies die every day -- with more than 80 percent of the deaths preventable with "basic solutions" such as affordable health care and well-trained medical staff -- Fore pointed to improvements made in countries such as Bangladesh, where the mortality rate has fallen by more than two-thirds. Bangladesh's Ambassador Masud bin Momen explained how his country has realized a dramatic reduction in newborn deaths from 241,000 in 1990 to 62,000 last year. His country, he said, has committed itself to improving the odds for babies by launching a national newborn health campaign recently. This has included the introduction of special newborn care units in public hospitals in 54 districts, though further support is needed in another 20 districts. He also said he anticipated the influx of Rohingya refugees from Myanmar would likely translate into thousands of pregnant women who will be facing difficulties in safely giving birth and in keeping their children alive. "We request UNICEF to immediately extend their Every Child Alive campaign to the Rohingya refugee camps and save lives," he said.

Japan is one of a small handful of places that has a high quality of life, especially outside the west. They have issues, but when you look at their behavior during natural disasters it is amazing. Like they don't even loot.

Homicide rate means: The amount/frequency of one person killing another. Violence means: Using or involving physical force intended to hurt, damage, or kill someone or something. Violent crime means: Any crime that involves using or involving physical force intended to hurt, damage, or kill someone or something. Homicide rate is part of violent crime. But it's one facet of violent crime. Things such as assault, rape, mugging, extreme stalking, vandalism etc do not count as homicide. Places like Detroit which are a hotspot for gun murder knock up America's homicide rate to an unrepresenative number for the nation as a whole. But things like rape, assault, mugging etc. Remain very low. As a result: The Crime Rate in America is really very low despite a large population and gets lower every year (almost) consistently.
