You know, it's not says people keep wanting to see it It's not says is in these cases that we investigate We almost 99.9% of the time can place them right back into an unsafe sleep environment And most of that is due to the fact that their caregivers just don't know so thank you sir Thank you members of council. Thank you city manager Wilson for this opportunity to partner with the city on this I have a proclamation. I'd like to read real quick if you don't with mine Memorializing this before you go. Did you want to say something? Okay Whereas Richland County coroner's office in the city of Columbia will join together an effort to educate citizens of Columbia about safe infant sleep And stop preventable deaths and whereas nationally more infants die each year from unsafe sleeping environments than doing car crashes And whereas Richland County had seven infant deaths this year as of July 2008 all due to unsafe sleep and in 2017 Richland County had four infant deaths in 2016 there were five infants in 2015 there were seven all also due to unsafe sleep And we're about whereas the ABCs of always alone on their backs in the clear crib again Alone backs crib can save an infant child from a sleep-related death Whereas classes will be held in parks around the city of Columbia in order to educate the public Now therefore I Stephen K.
