You want data, it is in there.

In 2011, a Canadian study found that Toxins implanted into GM food crops to kill pests are reaching the bloodstreams of women and unborn babies; Toxins were found in 93% of pregnant women's blood samples and 80% of umbilical cords.

And Dew, it seems squirrel's are smarter than many humans?

FWIW... the number 6% comes from the CIA website:

I do not find death amusing in any way. Period. So, even if 1 died because of GMO's, that death, like it or not is 1 too many.

Happy New Year.

FWIW... CDC definition of infant mortality (since you mentioned it...)

The death of a baby before his or her first birthday is called infant mortality. The infant mortality rate is an estimate of the number of infant deaths for every 1,000 live births. This rate is often used as an indicator to measure the health and well-being of a nation, because factors affecting the health of entire populations can also impact the mortality rate of infants. There are obvious differences in infant mortality by age, race, and ethnicity; for instance, the mortality rate for non-Hispanic black infants is more than twice that of non-Hispanic white infants.
