Health Minister Dr. Harsh Vardhan chaired an event to mark the National Newborn Week 2020.
About:
Newborn Care Week is celebrated every year in the country from 15 to 21 November.
The aim for celebrating the week is to raise awareness about the importance of the newborn care for child survival and development.
The neonatal period (the first 28 days of life) is the crucial period for child survival; as this period carries the highest risk of deaths per day than any other period during the childhood.
This year, the theme of National Newborn Week is ‘Quality, Equity, Dignity for every newborn at every health facility and everywhere.
