UPDATE: The Ministry of Health of the Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia and UNICEF announced on 13 September 2013 that Ethiopia reduced its under-5 mortality by two thirds between 1990 and 2012 -- the required reduction for meeting the target of Millennium Development Goal 4. In 1990, the under-5 mortality rate was one of the highest in the world at 204/1,000 live births; by 2012, this rate had been slashed to 68/1,000 live births.
