        less health care, more inequality, more poverty in certain demographic groups. US=less middle class than 1990

        Not to mention overuse of seriously higher risk medical procedures for doctor/patient "convenience"

        That is one of several and the complications that come along w/unnecessary use of these procedures.

        you can also blame home birthing right there. Not just a healthcare problem but freedom to die in "natural" childbirth.

        UK health care encourages home births to low risk pregnancies.

        So? The possibility of low-risk home births doesn't change its higher risk compared to hospital births in practice.

        No. There is higher complication & death rates in hospitals for mothers and newborns in low risk pregnancies.

        It is literally safer to have a home birth with a certified nurse midwife in a low risk pregnancy at home.

        when it moves from low-risk to high-risk it's the hospital that gets the bad statistic. But yeah hospital problems too ofc.

        Higher maternal mortality with cesarean sections, which are up from about 20 to 32% over that time as as well.

        If I remember correctly, we've been near the top (bad) of industrialized nations when it comes to maternal mortality for a while
