It's not too hard to find data from REPUTABLE sources that show that in the past 50 years, infant mortality rates in the United states have DROPPED significantly. Fifty years ago it was 26 deaths per 1000, now it's under seven. All during this time period additional vaccinations were added to the schedule!
And why did this particular report focus on only one year? A longitudinal study might have revealed more. In particular, it would have shown the dropping trend of deaths.
