Question

– How does co sleeping cause SIDS (sudden infant death syndrome)?

In: Biology

Answer 1

I’ve often wondered if SIDS/SUDI should partially be considered a culture bound syndrome. Asian, especially South Asian, populations (even those living in Western societies) tend to have much much lower incidences of SIDS than European populations despite co-sleeping being a norm.
