Neonatal Tetanus Immunization in Kuwait : 2000-2022

The “Neonatal Tetanus Protection (%)” indicator represents the percentage of newborns who are protected against neonatal tetanus. This protection is typically achieved by immunizing mothers with tetanus toxoid-containing vaccines, administered either during pregnancy or prior to pregnancy. This immunization ensures that newborns are immune to neonatal tetanus at birth. The chart illustrates the percentage of neonatal tetanus protection in Kuwait over a 23-year period, spanning from 2000 to 2022.
