Althought the Center of Disease Control is a reputable organization, the claims involve numbers and statistics that need to be referenced. Needs year of claim and no indication of pages of where it was found.

Data that shares specific numbers or percentages should not be considered common knowledge. Specific data information should always have a reference that is verifiable so that the accuracy of the information can be considered credible.

Again, there are number percentages and a reference to the CDC so it must be referenced.

A. Need to reference

This is a data driven statement that could be wrong. The data of 48% and uninsured children should be verified by a reliable research paper with a reliable author. Also this could be an older research number, so it might be important if the statistic has recently changed.

Need to reference

This contains information which is too specific to be considered common knowledge--if youve included it, you must have retrieved it from an outside source. You must attribute the source from which the information came.
