Minister D. Haitham Mohamed Ibrahim, at the Ministry’s inauguration ceremony, stressed that reducing mortality among children and mothers is at the top of the Ministry’s priorities by developing several programmes and strategies related to maternal and child health, including addressing critical pregnancies in the context of the settlement of services in the states and giving high incentives to specialists for women and obstetrics if they work in rural hospitals.

Recognizing that high mortality rates require concerted efforts to reduce them with the efforts of society, ministries of the Centre, states and organizations, he added not all causes of death from the Ministry of Health.
