so basically a tweet for more black abortionists?

There simply aren’t a lot of black NICU docs. Most infants that die after birth are treated by a NICU pediatric specialist, and they tend to be white. There are proportionally more black general Pediatricians. What a stupid “study.”doogie said:so basically a tweet for more black abortionists?
There is your answer, CNN. -
My wife, not a doctor, worked in a NICU. No minority NICU doctors. At least 80% are dems. For a variety of reasons, minorities have a higher percentage of premie births. Next, the stat is so mind numbingly stupid that any intelligent person would call BS. The implication that white doctors are offing born alive black kids. Sure. That is unless they survived an abortion in which case they are doing god's work.

The reporter and editor who wrote/approved this article must have the IQ of @insinceredawg. It’s a hard data compilation with no controls or variables. It’s a joke “study.” It’s certainly not using the scientific method.WestlinnDuck said:My wife, not a doctor, worked in a NICU. No minority NICU doctors. At least 80% are dems.

Yes. Teachers are also racist.
My second kid was delivered by a black doctor and lived. So the so ok with the whites too. -
I wonder how they normalized for the fact that large, wealthy, state of the art, well staffed and equipped hospitals near urban centers have a disproportionate number of both black doctors and black patients than smaller more rural hospitals?
Also the data set starts in 1992, infant mortality was nearly twice as high than as it is now and there was likely to be more white doctors. As more black doctors treated black infants, infant mortality in general was going down pretty sharply. Black doctors treating black babies is going to skew contemporary in it's data.
Along a similar thread, Older more experienced doctors are more white, because a larger percentage of new doctors in 1980s-1990s were white than new doctors today, so they are given more difficult cases resulting in a higher measured mortality. (Example: Really high end specialties have higher mortality rates because they are great hospitals taking on the hardest cases, not because they suck).

I was delivered by a black doctor. I guess I’m lucky I didn’t get smothered.
