*Most recent MS IMR. CDC 2007 data list MS as having highest IMR. Nearly 2/3 of infant deaths occur within the first 28 days of life. **More than 70% of infant deaths occur among infants with less than normal birthweight. For more than a decade greater than half of infant deaths occur among very low birthweight infants. VLBW < 1500g. *High rate of teen births is often offered up as an explanation for high IMR. In reality, < 20% of infant deaths occur among mothers
