Sudanese infants affected by deadly disease
The article addresses the state of the reproductive health system in Gedaref State, Sudan, where figures show a decline in maternal deaths. During the first half of 2026, there were 47 maternal deaths out of 27,149 live births, with a rate of 176 deaths per 100,000 live births. However, neonatal mortality remains high, with 248 newborns dying, primarily due to acute blood poisoning. The ministry is working on implementing programs and initiatives to improve childbirth services, including the provision of safe delivery supplies, training of midwives, and supporting medical staff in rural areas. Additionally, the reopening of the midwifery school aims to strengthen healthcare personnel, all in an effort to reduce newborn mortality and enhance the overall quality of healthcare.
