We're at least American enough to all have that in common, anyway...
...government should also help keep the neonatal death rate in participating districts down. But since the release of the results, no one seems very concerned about numbers. Health workers come and go; now that these women have a hold on the basics, they aren't likely to forget them fast. "Once the numbers go down," Costello says, "they don't come back up again...
