How would heath care affect infant mortality rates and contraceptive use?​
denis23 [38]

Answer with explanation:

  • Infant mortality rates would decrease. Greater quality or more widespread health care makes medical experts more accessible, so more people would have access to doctors and high-quality resources when their infant needs it.
  • A greater population would use contraceptives. Health care makes health supplies more accessible. More people would be able to afford and attain some form of contraceptives.
