• Maternal and Neonatal Tetanus strikes the poorest of the poor, the geographically hard to reach, and those without health care.
• In 34 countries in Africa, Asia, Europe and North America, it still strikes babies and mothers who have little or no access to health care — either because they are poor, live in remote areas or are caught in humanitarian emergencies.
