It has detailed facts about the social problem. The social facts state that maternal morality is the greatest health disparity in the world. 99% of maternal morality happens in the developing world. Pregnancy is the biggest killer of women age 15 to 19 in the developing world. Girls under 15 years old are five times more likely to die in childbirth than women in their twenties.
