In Pakistan, 1 of 20 kids dies before age 5. This group is trying to change that

In Pakistan, one out of every 20 children dies before age five.

Special correspondent Fred de Sam Lazaro began reporting on the issue early this year, examining one group seeking to improve child health in Pakistan, for his series Agents for Change.
