The white sand beaches of one of Kenya’s most popular tourist areas line an area with one of the country’s highest rates of deaths around childbirth. The Associated Press traveled to Kilifi County for the funeral of one of the latest women to die. Her family said she had been healthy but bled heavily during birth and had to wait several hours before being transported over rough roads to a larger health center.
