Wrapping a cot mattress in plastic does not explain the continuing fall in SIDS mortality.

Edwin A Mitchell1.   

Abstract

In 2005 in Auckland, New Zealand, the prevalence of wrapping cot mattresses in polythene, which has been recommended for sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) prevention by proponents of the toxic gas theory, was 21.7%. This cannot account for the 63% decline in SIDS from 1994 to 2004.
