March Of Dimes President On Maternal Care In Georgia

A new report from the March of Dimes finds at least two Georgia counties are lacking adequate maternity care.

This means mothers and babies are at risk of severe health issues and even death. And, the coronavirus pandemic is compounding the problem.

Stacey Stewart, president of the March of Dimes, spoke to WABE’s host of “All Things Considered,” Lisa Rayam about the lack of maternity care in the state.
