The development speed of cutting down the rate of children and
mother mortality in Armenia shows that Armenia will not be able to
shortcut the mortality rate by 2/3% till 2015, said Laily Moshiri,
the representative of UN children’s office in Armenia.
According to the UNICEF report the mother mortality rate in Armenia
is rather serious. Mother mortality rate in Armenia is 1 to 180 and
in developed countries 1 to 8000.
According to the UN representative insufficient prenatal and birth
care, lack of professional staff and equipments are the basic reasons
to high rate of mortality, reported Panorama.
