EU countries, in general, do follow WHO reporting guidelines. There can be some variations, of course, but those are considered pretty minor. I was just recently reading up on this in talking with my wife, who is a doula and a La Leche League leader, so it's a topic of interest to us.
Here's the CDC run down on infant mortality rates and explains why the reporting is comparable and also provides data analysis that excludes things like births before 22 weeks that might be included in some countries and excluded in others. http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/databriefs/db23.htm Cheers, Judah On Thu, Jan 17, 2013 at 12:38 PM, Larry C.
