The Y axis in the graph is labeled incorrectly. It's deaths per 100,000 births, not deaths per 100 (percent).

The y-axis was indeed labeled incorrectly, as the commenter has noted. California immediately corrected the error.

As the post above notes, California Watch changed "percent" to "per 100,000 live births" when notified that it appeared incorrectly on the web. Nathanael Johnson

It is something we take for granted in the United States. A woman enters the hospital to give birth and she emerges a couple of days later with a beautiful bundle of joy. That is how it usually goes. ramona and beezus download | the karate kid download | the sorcerer's apprentice download

It is something we take for granted in the United States. A woman enters the hospital to give birth and she emerges a couple of days later with a beautiful bundle of joy. That is how it usually goes. But this story is about the rare exception -- women who die within 42 days of childbirth. In the health care community it's called simply "maternal mortality." And in the U.S., many experts believe it is on the rise. According to the World Health Organization, the U.S. ranks behind more than 40 other countries when it comes to maternal death rates, with 11 deaths per 100,000 pregnancies when measured in 2005. More women die in the U.S. after giving birth than die in countries including Poland, Croatia, Italy and Canada, to name a few. http://www.pdfok.com/maternal-mortality
