... waarbij het volgens mij niet gaat om een verschil tussen 'maternal' versus 'newborn' tetanus, maar om het contrast tussen de behandeling in 'the industrialized world' en die in 'less industrialized countries':

'In the industrialized world, most mothers and children are protected through a routine vaccination called tetanus toxic and most mothers deliver in a health facility in the presence of a midwife or a medical doctor. It is a tale of two worlds.
Why are vaccines important?
If a mother is vaccinated with 2 doses of tetanus toxoid vaccine, she passes her immunity onto her baby, who is protected for the first two months of life. She herself is also protected against tetanus for three years.(4)Sadly, many of the poorest people in less industrialized countries have little or no access to health services and do not have this protection.' (etc.)
