Original Note:
The US measures maternal mortality differently than other countries; it includes mortality for 1 year after birth instead of 42 days, and it is subject to errors from a "checkbox" on reporting forms that over-reports. When corrected, the true rate is closer to 5.8 per 100k. https://www.cdcfoundation.org/sites/default/files/upload/pdf/MMRIAReport.pdf
