It's not that the person was wrong, it's that the person saw no difference between an accidental death (#1 cause) and death from pregnancy. Look at these causes, and you tell me which type of death a hospital can best actively prevent as a part of the treatment plan and those measures have the most impact:
#1 Unintentional injuries
#2 Cancer
#3 Suicide
#4 Heart disease
#5 Chronic lower respiratory diseases
#6 Pregnancy complications
Think about which type of young patient comes to them with at minimum of 6 to 9 months of warning, so much time to prepare for the "event". Think about which type of patient can leave the hospital well with a completely normal life expectancy. Out of those #6 death options, pregnancy is the only type of event where, if you survive, you have a completely normal life & life expectancy. Given that, why wouldn't a hospital invest the resource?
