2. Babies born in the US have a higher chance of dying than almost all other high-income countries. We’ve stopped tracking why
3. Hunger is rampant in the US. But the government is no longer asking people about it
4. More than half of trans youth have considered suicide. But any mention of trans people has been deleted from a critical survey
