Tdap Effectiveness Winter 2016 by carmencitae1 is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This study shows that prenatal Tdap vaccination significantly reduces the severity of pertussis in infants, with a 58% effectiveness in preventing hospitalization and a lower risk of ICU admission. Infants born to vaccinated mothers had shorter hospital stays and were less likely to exhibit severe symptoms. The findings support the recommendation for pregnant women to receive the Tdap vaccine to protect their infants from pertussis-related morbidity and mortality.
