JUMP IN INFANT MORTALITY IN NORTHWEST MAY BE FUKUSHIMA RELATED

Spike In Death Rate Of Children Under 1 Year In Eight Significant Cities Although the infant mortality rate in the USA has been steadily increasing (we're now ranked 28th in the world in baby deaths), just released statistics ominously suggest the Pacific rim has experienced something of major significance in terms of the region's infant mortality rate. In spite of the fact that major media has sought to downplay the danger, the conclusion that Fukushima related radiation is the culprit is difficult to resist.

The Center For Disease Control (CDC) produces a Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR), and the just published edition show a baby death rate increase of 35% in eight cities Northwestern cities, suspected of receiving increased radiation, floating over from Japan's critically damaged nuclear plants. the cities affected are as follows:

• Boise, ID
• Seattle, WA
• Portland, OR
• Santa Cruz, CA
• Sacramento, CA
• San Francisco, CA
• San Jose, CA
• Berkeley, CA

Any adjacent cities (such as GEO/Christian Media's home base in Southern Oregon along the Western I-5 corridor) are almost certainly also affected, but the report focused on larger population centers. The MMWR statement showed 37 dead babies in the 4 weeks ending March 19th, plus 125 deaths in the 10 week period ending May 28th of this year. The period covers the month before and the 2 1/2 months after the Fukushima disaster, and the numbers are very significant.

To put it into perspective, while infant death spiked 35% in the affected areas, the rest of the USA saw a 2.3% increase. In short, something in the Northwest is killing infants at a sharply higher rate in that same period. Dr Janette Sherman, a physician examining the data notes the statistic correlate with patterns seen in the wake of the Chernobyl nuclear disaster. Similar findings are also seen in wildlife death in affected areas.
