AMMAN — Health Minister Mahmoud Sheyyab has participated in high-level meetings on reproductive health, which were held on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly session in New York, Health Ministry Spokesperson Hatem Azrui said on Friday.
Azrui said that the General Assembly chose Jordan to take part at the meetings to view its expertise in reproductive health and means of family organisation in humane and emergency cases, due to the success the Kingdom has achieved in the field.
Sheyyab said that the Kingdom succeeded in several indicators on reproductive health, such as reducing death rates among newborns from 20 for each 1,000 in 1990 to 14 for each 1,000 in 2012, Azrui told the Jordan News Agency, Petra.
