Counterpoint has no point, you're comparing apples to oranges from what I understand.
One is number of children per adult via fertility rate, the other is infant mortality rate - which I presume a death while still in the womb is the most substantial to that number. My point simply being is that the fertility rate would doesn't count the infant mortalities anyways, so it's not an issue.
But feel free to correct me if I'm wrong: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Total_fertility_rate
The key actually says "deaths per 1000 live births". Counterpoint is very pointy.
