Mississippi Infant Mortality Emergency Underscores US Health Crisis

ARLINGTON, Va., Aug. 22, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — On August 21, 2025, the Mississippi State Department of Health declared a public health emergency after reporting an alarming rise in infant mortality, on top of already leading the nation in infant death rates. March of Dimes, the nation’s leading nonprofit fighting for the health of moms and babies, issued the following response from President and CEO, Cindy Rahman:

“The Mississippi Department of Health’s declaration of a public health emergency in response to infant mortality is a painful reminder of the maternal and infant health crisis facing our nation. In 2024, Mississippi’s infant mortality rate was 9.7 deaths per 1,000 live births, the highest of any state and substantially higher than the provisional US rate of 5.5 in 2024. The burden falls especially hard on babies born to Black moms, who experienced an infant mortality rate of 15.2—a nearly 24% increase from the previous year, while the rate among babies born to white moms declined.

Every number represents a baby lost and a family grieving. Although Mississippi accounts for less than 1% of US births, the state accounts for more than 1.6% of all infant deaths. These losses should be a wake-up call to the nation. March of Dimes supports Mississippi’s public health leadership for raising attention to this critical issue and outlining key strategies to improve birth outcomes in the state.

The recent rise in infant deaths in Mississippi is occurring most often in the earliest days of life, with deaths among newborns under 28 days old driving much of the increase. Prematurity, birth defects, and maternal complications of pregnancy are key contributors to these losses. March of Dimes’ Report Card shows Mississippi has some of the worst maternal and infant outcomes in the nation, with a preterm birth rate of 15% compared to 10.4% nationally. Nearly half of all counties in Mississippi are considered maternity care deserts, leaving families with little or no access to maternity care and putting them at greater risk for poor outcomes. Mississippi’s commitment to improving its system of care for moms and babies, filling gaps in care, and expanding community health and home visiting programs is an important step forward—and aligns closely with the priorities March of Dimes has been advocating across the country.

Mississippi’s crisis reflects a wider trend. Provisional CDC data show that twenty-four states reported rising infant mortality rates in 2024. Some of these states, including Mississippi, Arkansas, and Louisiana, were already among the worst in the nation for infant mortality rates, underscoring that our system is failing moms and babies in the places that need investment most.

We know the best way to save babies’ lives is to support moms’ health before, during, and after pregnancy. That means increasing access to early prenatal care, reducing maternity care deserts, and ensuring no matter where a mom gives birth, she and her baby can be quickly connected to appropriate treatment—from routine delivery to the most specialized newborn care. It also means investing in home visiting programs and community health workers who connect families to resources where they live. Our maternity care deserts report shows that millions of women in the US live in counties with little or no access to maternity care, placing moms and babies at higher risk for poor outcomes.

Protecting Medicaid is equally critical. Medicaid covers nearly 53% of births in Mississippi and 40% nationwide, making it a critical lifeline for moms and babies. Any cuts or restrictions will only make this crisis worse. Telehealth, home visiting, and other community-based supports are essential tools, but they cannot succeed without the foundation of health insurance through Medicaid and other programs that support families.

The United States is among the most dangerous developed nations for childbirth. We cannot afford to move backward. March of Dimes will continue to lead efforts to expand access to care, protect Medicaid, and advance policies that support the health of moms and babies so that every family has the opportunity to thrive from day one.”

Great Bay CEO Receives Company Person of the Year Award

WEST ATLANTIC CITY, N.J., Aug. 22, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — The Great Bay Insurance Group (the “Group”), the leading provider of coastal homeowners’ insurance in New Jersey, today announced that Timothy J. Byrne, Sr., Chief Executive Officer of the Group, has been award the Company Person of the Year by the PIANJ at its annual conference.  This award is given to individuals who foster a strong working relationship with agents and brokers, and who exemplify a commitment to professionalism and service.

Great Bay is a coastal Homeowners writer in New Jersey with plans to expand into other products and States.  Great Bay is known for its ease of doing business, prompt fair claims handling and most of all for providing a stable market.

Mr. Byrne, Sr., a founding member of the Group in 2019, has over 40 years of broad industry experience in various leadership capacities.  Mr. Byrne began his career at 14 years old working summers in his father’s retail agency founded by his grandfather John J Byrne in 1959, The J Byrne Agency of Cape May County NJ, working nine summers while attending Wildwood High School, Rutgers College and a post-graduate degree in Insurance from what is now the St. John’s School of Risk Management, Insurance & Actuarial Science. Mr. Byrne joined the agency full-time in June of 1983.

In 2003 Mr. Byrne, having identified the need for a Coastal Homeowners option, founded Coastal Agents Alliance (“CAA”) ultimately placing over $50,000,000 in surplus lines homeowners’ business in eight northeast states.  In 2015 he sold CAA to Gryphon investors who merged CAA with Orchid Underwriters out of Vero Beach FL.

After three years at Orchid Underwriters, Mr. Byrne left to form Great Bay Insurance Group, which began operations in August of 2019. In Mr. Byrne’s acceptance speech, he highlighted his love of independent agents and how IAs were the key to his success.  Between his time at CAA and Orchid he claimed he has probably visited more independent agencies than any other person alive. “Few can do what independent agencies can do,” Mr. Byrne told the audience of independent agents. “From the threat of ‘captive agents’ in the 1970s to the ‘banks-forming-insurance-agencies’ of the 1990s to the current AI and the internet cutting out the middleman, agents have survived.  Weathering the coastal HO crises post Andrew or KRW, or the wildfire crisis post-California fires, IA’s have not only survived but thrive in challenging environments. Other outlets of distribution pack up and go home,” said Mr. Byrne.

Clean Energy for All: BLUETTI and UN-Habitat Strengthen Partnership to Expand Access to Clean Energy in Africa

NAIROBI, Kenya, Aug. 22, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Global clean energy leader BLUETTI has deepened its partnership with the United Nations Human Settlements Programme (UN-Habitat) to accelerate access to sustainable clean energy across Africa. Building on the ongoing ‘Lighting An African Family’ (LAAF) initiative in Kenya, now in its fourth year, the program continues to benefit 500 families and more than 2,000 residents in urban and peri-urban underserved communities, the majority from women-led households.

As part of the partnership, BLUETTI attended the 2025 Devolution Conference (12–15 August), Kenya’s premier policy forum, to showcase how clean, affordable energy solutions support housing, urban resilience, and intelligent urban solutions. The conference reinforced the shared commitment of parties, institutions and the Kenyan Government that clean energy is critical to foster a sustainable future for all.

Through training and technology transfer, BLUETTI donated 500 E60 Solar Lighting and Storage kits, benefiting over 2,000 residents. Over five years, the initiative is expected to reduce carbon emissions by 337.5 tons, while enhancing urban resilience and environmental awareness in the communities.

“Partnership with BLUETTI brings renewable energy to vulnerable families in Sub-Saharan Africa, especially for women led households, showcasing a UN- private sector partnership model,” Mr Oumar Sylla, Director of the Regional Office for Africa at UN-Habitat said while meeting the representatives of BLUETTI at the UN offices in Nairobi.

“We are proud to strengthen our joint effort with UN-Habitat, embracing the mission and responsibility of advancing the Sustainable Development Goals,” said James Ray, BLUETTI spokesperson.

Following the Kenya launch, BLUETTI and UN-Habitat plan to expand related programs to other African countries, reaffirming their commitment to sustainability and energy equity.

Famine Confirmed in Gaza Governorate

Spokespersons available. Please contact: 

Meredith Whitefield 

Head of Communication and Content 

mwhitefield@actionagainsthunger.org

  • Action Against Hunger nutrition teams in Gaza are witnessing the highest number of cases of severe acute malnutrition since the beginning of its nutrition programming in 2024, both in pregnant and lactating women and in children under the age of 5.

NEW YORK, August 22, 2025 /3BL/ – The Famine Review Committee (FRC) has officially confirmed famine (IPC Phase 5) in Gaza Governorate, one of the few times such a classification has ever been declared globally. Over half million people in the Gaza Strip are facing catastrophic conditions characterized by starvation, destitution, and death. The crisis is projected to expand to Deir al-Balah and Khan Younis by the end of September.

Action Against Hunger teams on the ground are witnessing alarming rates of severe acute malnutrition, especially among children under 5 and pregnant or breastfeeding women. In July and August alone, Action Against Hunger nutrition teams have received more than 400 cases of malnourished children, 20% of them severe.

“Our nutrition teams are witnessing the highest number of severe acute malnutrition cases since we began nutrition operations in Gaza in 2024,” said an Action Against Hunger staff member in Deir al-Balah. “Pregnant and breastfeeding women face double the risk: exhausted bodies, harsh hunger, and a severe lack of essential health and nutrition support.”

Data from the UN and other INGOs in Gaza reveals that the total number of children under five admitted for acute malnutrition treatment have been surging:

  • 5,119 children in May, a 148% increase from February,
  • 6,500 children in June, the highest since October 2023, and
  • Over 5,000 additional cases in just the first two weeks of July.

The FRC report projects that by June 2026, at least 132,000 children under five will be at risk of death from acute malnutrition, including over 41,000 severe cases.

“It is important to note that many families do not have the resources to arrive at humanitarian nutrition sites to receive treatment. Also, there is a lack of nutrition supplies, hindering the capacity to treat such cases in a timely manner. We also noted that many breastfeeding and pregnant mothers suffer from malnutrition themselves”, said an Action Against Hunger staff member in Gaza.

“As a result of nearly two years of continued forcible transfer, airstrikes, and continuous disrupted and little access to food and water, Gaza’s entire population has been compelled to rely on humanitarian food aid as a primary source of sustenance, with an increasing number of extreme vulnerability under the mothers and their children that are undernourished”, said Vincent Stehli, Action Against Hunger Head of Operations. “The current entry of aid is alarmingly insufficient in the face of widespread and rapidly increasing famine”, added Vincent Stehli.

Despite the escalating crisis, humanitarian aid remains severely restricted. Action Against Hunger, like other INGOs, is facing administrative barriers in importing goods, while local food production is nearly impossible. Only 1.5% of Gaza’s cropland remains accessible and undamaged, and staple food prices have skyrocketed by 4,000% compared to pre-October 2023 levels. Shelter conditions are dire, and further displacement from Gaza City threatens to worsen the situation.

Action Against Hunger urgently calls for a permanent ceasefire, the unconditional release of all hostages, and full, large-scale, and sustained access for humanitarian actors. Only through coordinated and unhindered efforts can we deliver the necessary response to avert further loss of life in Gaza. “An immediate ceasefire and end to the conflict is critical to enabling an unimpeded, large-scale humanitarian response that can save lives. Famine must be stopped now”, concluded Vincent Stehli.

Testimonies from Gaza: “When was the last time you had a proper meal?” 

“I have a family of seven. The last time we had a real full meal was two weeks ago. It was fish” – Palestinian in Deir al Balah.

“The last time we had a real meal was during the temporary ceasefire. But nowadays we only eat pasta or bread” – Palestinian in Deir al Balah.

“I have two kids and a wife. The last time we had a meal, which was an eggplant salad, was fifteen days ago. It was a blessing. I got eggplant and tahini sauce, and my wife and I made it for all four of us” – Palestinian in Deir al Balah.

  • Renewables (Ongoing) – The company continues to execute utility scale (50mws or greater) solar, storage, hydro and hybrid projects integrating these assets with T&S scopes and, where appropriate, with geothermal or thermal resources to form resilient portfolios.

“Our customers want one accountable partner who can safely deliver complex projects, align with evolving interconnection standards, and manage multi-disciplinary risk,” Nicholas stated, “By unifying our brand and expanding our EPC capabilities, Louth Callan is positioned to deliver exactly that.”

What does this mean for our partners?

  • A more comprehensive and detailed Louth Callan: A single brand and unified project delivery model across generation, grid, and industrial scopes.
  • Same trusted team but expanded: Existing contracts, teams, and points of contact remain unchanged; the legal entity and obligations are unaffected by the brand update, but the strength and experience of our team increases significantly.
  • Stronger supply chain: Expanded vendor frameworks and category strategies across electrical equipment, major mechanical packages, drilling/well services, and civil works.
  • Clear HSE & Quality leadership: Reinforced programs aligned to internationally recognized standards, with field-first safety culture and continuous improvement baked into commissioning and turnover.

Louth Callan’s EPC framework is engineered to de-risk critical path activities such as permitting, interconnection, long-lead procurement, civil & foundations, and commissioning while maintaining rigorous interface control across OEMs and specialty subcontractors. The result is predictable schedules, grid-compliant assets, and lifecycle performance aligned to customers’ commercial objectives.

The Louth Callan brand transformation includes a refreshed logo, a new visual identity, and a redesigned website that will roll out across digital channels, job sites, documentation, vehicles, and PPE over the coming weeks. While our branding has changed, our unwavering commitment to safety, quality, and excellence remains the same. We invite you to explore the new site, learn more about our work and see how we are building better – together. www.louthcallan.com

Max Greenfield Says Becoming a Parent Has Made Him More Appreciative of What Teachers Do Day to Day (Exclusive)

Originally published on People.com

Max Greenfield may be best known as Schmidt, the hilariously high-strung scene-stealer from New Girl, but lately, the Emmy-nominated actor has found himself playing a very different kind of role — classroom ally.

“I’ve always had a deep respect for teachers, but becoming a parent gave me a closer look at how much they take on, often going above and beyond without the resources they deserve,” Greenfield, 45, tells PEOPLE. “That’s why Subaru Loves Learning stood out to me. It’s a conscientious effort to support the people who make such a big difference in our kids’ lives.”
