Apparently they target women in fertile age (15-49) because newborns often die when being born with it.
- tetanusshot 8y agoThis is helpful and provides somewhere for me to start looking. It is very disappointing that organizations of the pro-eminence of UNICEF would engage in mass vaccination campaigns and not follow the due diligence. Someone is administering vaccine to minors without parental consent.
- gus_massa 8y agoIf your sister is 20 years old, I'm not sure if it's necessary to get parental consent for a medical treatment. (Probably she can't buy alcohol (legally).) They need her consent anyway. Also, this is a very common vaccine, and (at least here in Argentina) pregnant women get it regularly in the third month of pregnancy.
