“the c- CDC did a study looking at the changes in rates of neural tube birth defects between 1995 and 2011 and found a 28% reduction in rates of neural tube defects in the United States during that time and an estimated 1,300 prevented births with neural tube defects.”
“has worked. I mean a 28% reduction is huge.”
“the reduction in birth... birth defects was experienced by all populations, all races and ethnicities, but by 2011 there was still higher rates of these birth defects among Hispanics”
