About: The claim that ‘2,500 women die giving birth each year’ has been rated false. The maternal mortality rate has gone down. The latest statistics have 1,589 deaths, not 2,500. The rest of the claim is a bit more complicated. Are women dying as a result of the hospital having only one theatre? Research shows that it is more nuanced than that. While having only one theatre is a challenge in carrying out emergency c-sections, most of the maternal deaths are not as a result of only not having theatres. It’s a combination of also not having enough personnel, blood or drugs. Addressing obstetric haemorrhage would reduce deaths from direct causes by a third while addressing abortion and hypertensive diseases would reduce deaths due to direct-causes by four-fifths.
