Torch concluded that DPT �may be a generally unrecognized major cause of sudden infant and early childhood death, and that the risks of immunization may outweigh its potential benefits.
Fine and Chen reported that babies died at a rate nearly eight times greater than normal within 3 days after getting a DPT vaccination.
In 1992, to address the unacceptable SIDS rate, the American Academy of Pediatrics initiated a �Back to Sleep� campaign, convincing parents to place their infants supine, rather than prone, during sleep.
From 1992 to 2001, the postneonatal SIDS rate dropped by an average annual rate of 8.6%. However, other causes of sudden unexpected infant death (SUID) increased.
For example, the postneonatal mortality rate from �suffocation in bed� (ICD-9 code E913.0) increased during this same period at an average annual rate of 11.2%.
(In Australia, Mitchell et al. observed that when the SIDS rate decreased, deaths attributed to asphyxia increased. Overpeck et al. and others, reported similar observations.)
This results in a non-significant decline in SIDS
