Part E_2 Reading

   
Mortality rate
mortality rate

In 2020, almost 5 million children under the age of five died worldwide. Newborns account for nearly half of that total (2.4 million). Generally, 2.2 million children and young people aged 5 to 24 years old died in 2020. These high mortality rates are primarily the result of illnesses that can be avoided or treated.

However, there are still many people who do not have the right knowledge, and whether newborn babies can have healthy and safe lives simply depends on where they are born. In developing countries, many mothers die from pregnancy and childbirth. We can create a healthy and long-lived society by understanding the proper preventive measures for infectious diseases and gender.

Part E_9 Reading

   
Diseases and their methods of prevention
The leading causes of death in children differ depending on their age. Here are some diseases and their methods of prevention.

Pneumonia mortality in children is significantly associated with malnutrition, a lack of good water and sanitation, indoor air pollution, and a lack of healthcare access. Antibiotics are a simple way to treat pneumonia.

In 2017, 480,000 young children died from diarrhea. Oral rehydration salts can prevent between 70 to 90 percent of deaths.

Malaria claimed the lives of roughly 274,000 children under the age of five in 2019. The disease could easily be prevented with insecticide-treated mosquito nets and quick diagnostic tests.

Many precious lives might be saved if countries or communities had secure and decent medical administration systems, medical facilities and knowledge.
