Nearly seven million women in the United States live in areas with limited or no access to maternity services.
One health advocacy group says these so-called maternity deserts cover mostly rural counties which make up more than a third of the US.
Non-profit organisation March of Dimes says more women are dying in childbirth as a result.

Al Jazeera’s Heidi Zhou-Castro reports.
