TY - JOUR PY - 2013// TI - Child injury prevention: an overlooked challenge for child survival JO - International journal of environmental research and public health A1 - Meddings, David R. SP - 568 EP - 570 VL - 10 IS - 2 N2 - Those interested in child survival frequently cite and follow the under-five mortality rate. While a useful measure, the under-five mortality rate lumps together neonatal and post-neonatal mortality with deaths in the 1-4 year period. Unfortunately, this hampers public health decision making about the most appropriate child survival strategies as children survive beyond their first year of life.
