sauce:
The study was led by Emma G. Guare of the Pennsylvania State College of Medicine in Hershey, Pennsylvania. it was Published online on September 26th JAMA network open.
Limitations:
This study used CDC mortality data rather than linking infant birth and death data. Data were limited by state reporting. Reporting on race and ethnicity was incomplete. The retrospective nature of the data and the lack of consistent pediatrician information on mortality assessment resulted in overestimation or underestimation of the role of infectious diseases. The study was not able to assess other risk factors for SIDS that were likely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, such as smoking, breastfeeding, and changes in child care use.
