"Tetanus is easily preventable, and together we can do it. The sad truth is that every year 59,000 children die from this terrible disease, and at risk are still some 130 million women and their future children from the most remote areas of the poorest countries in the world. With vaccination program can be easily prevented deaths from tetanus. With your support, we can protect against tetanus for women and their babies ", - says Rounak Khan (Rownak Khan), Senior-immunologist Unicef.
All mothers want their children are safe, well-fed, healthy and educated. Each of them gives his children what they need. But there are many children whose lives are in danger and with no one to take care of. You can join the thousands of mothers to help children in need.
For reference:
Tetanus is caused by bacteria that live in the soil. Newborns often infected due to unsanitary conditions, such as cutting the umbilical cord with unsterile instruments or touching the child with dirty hands. Without medical care, most affected children die within the first month of life. Maternal and neonatal tetanus is preventable through simple injections for pregnant women and women of childbearing age, to protect the mother and her unborn child at this vulnerable period. After the introduction of the vaccine against tetanus for pregnant mothers get antibodies through the placenta to the fetus.
The World Health Organization (WHO) and Unicef are encouraged to provide a triple dose of tetanus vaccine to provide long-lasting immunity. After vaccination, a woman is protected for 5 years, and was born from her child will have immunity to the disease during the first 2 months of life.
