Low Birth Weight
Topics to Improve:

-Add dates to all statistics (year, source, country)

-Include more info on vaccines

-Change order of section (epidemiology before causes)

-Grammar improvements

-Add a breastfeeding section?

Under “Prevention and Outcomes”

-Shorten public health section —> part of it briefly glosses over prenatal care and mother’s health during pregnancy, which could be turned into its own prenatal care section

-Medical treatments section is just a continuation of public health section, and could potentially be combined? Then could switch the title of “medical treatments” to something more relevant, or get rid of the section altogether

-Include a breastfeeding section?
