SIDS and SUID rates continue to drop in NJ, but ‘babies are still dying’
Sudden Infant Death Syndrome took the lives of 0.22 babies per 1,000 live births in New Jersey from 2012 to 2014, according to Centers for Disease Control statistics. A baby who appears healthy one minute may be found deceased by the time they wake up, and the death can not be explained after a thorough and complete investigation.
