Abstract

Many infants are born with more than one birth defect. The SC Birth Defects Act (Title 44-44-10) allows DHEC to address birth defects prevention, research, and referrals through the SC Birth Defects Program. Overall, birth defect rates are similar across racial and ethnic groups; however, disparities exist regarding some specific types of defects.
