Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that the CDC reported that unsafe sleep factors were present in nearly 75 percent of sudden unexpected infant deaths?

Yes. A CDC MMWR analysis of 2020–2024 case registry data reports that unsafe sleep factors were present in at least three fourths of sudden unexpected infant deaths, matching the claim's nearly 75 percent figure. A separate study similarly found 76% of SUID cases had multiple unsafe sleep factors present.
