According to CIA factbook Mexico ranks 108 for Maternal Mortality rates in the world, i.e. 50 women out of 100,000 die due to cause related to or aggravated by pregnancy or its management, whereas, in USA (ranks 136) 21 out of 100,000 women die due to the same cause . Another statistic that shows the need for better health care in Mexico in the area surrounding women and children is the Infant Mortality Rate.
