Excerpt

GWEN IFILL (Newshour): We turn now to a new report which ranks the countries where mothers and their children are at the most and the least risk.

The international nonprofit Save the Children finds Norway the healthiest for the third year in a row, the worst, the West African nation of Niger. It replaced Afghanistan, which moved up one spot from last year. The United States ranked 25th.

For more on the report, we're joined by Save the Children president and CEO Carolyn Miles.
