Thousands of Indian babies that are mostly born in village homes as prematured and under weight have high mortality rate as they have no access to the life saving incubator.
In an urgent effort to save lakhs of such unfortunate Indian babies that die within one month of their life, four graduates from Stanford University have invented a baby bag (see image) that would fill in he needs of a traditional incubator but at the same time, would cost less than 1% of it.
I have inserted a video clip of Jane Chen, one of the inventors of the Baby Wrap talking to the media.
The two other names of the inventor team sound very much Indian; they are Dr. Rahul Panicker, and Naganand Murty while the fourth inventor's name is Linus Liang.
Indian doctors, Indian mothers, India based social activists and women's movement leaders and members should collectively say thanks to the 4 inventors of this life saving device that they call as "Warm Embrace".
