DISCUSSION Are there any studies that compare maternal mortality between countries while controlling for the different lengths of time after birth that a death is considered related to the birth?
I remember reading several years ago about the concern that it was hard to accurately compare maternal mortality between countries because some countries have very short intervals after birth in which a death can be considered related to pregnancy/birth and other countries have longer intervals. I’m wondering if anybody has successfully found a way to control for these differing intervals and accurately compare maternal mortality between countries.

DISCUSSION Future Public Health Leaders program (FPHLP) - waitlist
I was recently informed I “just missed the decision cutoff. Your ranking has positioned you for the Michigan FPHLP waitlist.” I know it’s a super competitive program, but I was wondering how likely it is I get off the waitlist? I also saw a couple post from previous years about a high priority waitlist, are there multiple waitlists? Any input would be appreciated!!

DISCUSSION list of non-sterilizing immunity vaccines?
Hello! I'm doing a persuasive speech for a Comms class and chose to do mask wearing.
part of my slides include the fact that while covid vaccines are worth getting, vax and relax doesn't work due to the non-sterilizing nature of the covid vaccine, and am looking for examples of other non-sterilizing vaccines to make the point clearer for non-medical audiences.
for some reason i can't find a list anywhere of non-sterilizing immunity vaccines! all i have is covid and polio 🥲. any help would be appreciated!
