Summary/Fair Use Rationale
This is an exhibit of a U.S. Standard Certificate of Live Birth, taken from a report entitled "The 1989 Revision of the U.S. Standard Certificates and Reports" (Series 4, No. 28), issued by the U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES, Public Health Service, Centers for Disease Control, National Center for Health Statistics. The entire report can be viewed in full at http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/series/sr_04/sr04_028.pdf, which is hosted by a U.S. federal government website.

This image is imperative to the integrity of the article as it clearly illustrates the appearance of a standard long form birth certificate, although no such "U.S. Standard Certificate of Live Birth" actually exists.
