🚨 Allegheny County is launching a crucial campaign to address the alarming rise in sudden unexpected infant deaths (SUID), especially among African American infants, who represent nearly half of these tragic cases. County Executive Sara Innamorato stresses the importance of targeted advertising in communities like Wilkinsburg and McKeesport. SUID, the leading cause of death for infants aged one month to one year, is often linked to unsafe sleep environments. In 2020, there were 9 cases, which climbed to 23 in 2024. Let’s work together to raise awareness and keep our babies safe! 🍼💔 #infanthealth #whiteinfants #publichealth #blackinfants #safesleep #healthcampaign #infantsafety #communityhealth #SUIDawareness #AmericanInfants #ChuckPointWalker #Monk https://www.wtae.com/article/allegheny-county-launches-campaign-address-rising-infant-deaths/71539038
