Answer:

Explanation:

The infant mortality rate is a social indicator represented by the number of children who died before reaching one year of life per thousand live births in a year. This is an important indicator of the quality of health services in a country. The disclosure of mortality rates is the basis for the government to adopt public policies on health and reproduction.
