然而，出生前后死亡率(怀孕22周和出生后第一周的婴儿死亡率)几乎相同。

But the perinatal mortality rate (the number of babies that die between the 22nd week of pregnancy and the first week after birth) was about the same.

出生是出生前和出生后之间的一种间断，而死亡只是使某人脱离社会团体，送到播着预先录制好圣歌的殡仪。

Birth is a kind of discontinuity between the prenatal and post-natal clinics, while death just takes somebody out of the community, possibly to the tune of prerecorded hymns at the funeral parlor.
