Texas is among the worst states for childhood health, new study shows

Texas ranked 44th among U.S. states when it comes to childhood health, according to a data analysis by online pharmacy company Universal Drugstore. West Virginia was the nation's unhealthiest place for kids, while Vermont, New Hampshire and Massachusetts, in respective order, topped the list.
