There were 4,569 Jewish births in the Negev (southern Israel) in 1972, the first year of birth registration by the Unit for Evaluation and Planning of Kupat Holim and the Ben-Gurion University center for Health Sciences. The crude birth rate was 28.8 per 1,000 population, with 130.7 live births per 1,000 women aged 15 to 44 years. Total fertility was 3.9 per woman, varying from 3.4 in the kibbutzim and 3.5 in Beersheba to 5.2 in the moshavim (collective settlements) and 3.7 to 6.3 in the development towns. Late fetal and perinatal death rates were 9.4 and 19.0/1,000, and the neonatal and infant mortality rates, 11.0 and 18.1/1,000 respectively. The proportion of males was 0.51, the twinning rate was 9.5/1,000 women delivered, and 1.1% of babies were illegitimate. Low birth weight (less than 2.5 kg) was recorded in 6.9% of births. Fifty-three percent of births were to immigrant mothers from North Africa; the remainder were divided equally among mothers born in Israel, the Asian Near East, and Western countries. The Asian immigrant group was at high risk for infant death, with a rate of 3.64/1,000 as compared with 14.8, 14.2 and 5.8 recorded for the offspring of mothers born in Israel, North Africa and Western countries, respectively. Patterns of mortality in relation to maternal age, birth order and education were similar to those reported for developed countries.
1972年，在内盖夫（以色列南部）有4569名犹太婴儿出生，这是库帕特·霍利姆评估与规划部门以及本-古里安大学健康科学中心进行出生登记的第一年。粗出生率为每1000人口28.8例，每1000名15至44岁女性的活产数为130.7例。总生育率为每名妇女3.9个孩子，基布兹为3.4个，贝尔谢巴为3.5个，莫沙夫（集体定居点）为5.2个，发展镇为3.7至6.3个。晚期胎儿和围产期死亡率分别为每1000例9.4例和19.0例，新生儿和婴儿死亡率分别为每1000例11.0例和18.1例。男性比例为0.51，双胎率为每1000例分娩妇女9.5例，1.1%的婴儿为非婚生。6.9%的出生婴儿体重低（低于2.5千克）。53%的婴儿母亲是来自北非的移民；其余母亲在以色列、亚洲近东和西方国家出生的比例均等。亚洲移民群体的婴儿死亡风险较高，死亡率为每1000例3.64例，而以色列、北非和西方国家出生的母亲所生子女的死亡率分别为14.8例、14.2例和5.8例。与母亲年龄、生育顺序和教育程度相关的死亡率模式与发达国家报告的类似。
