Pregnant Women Need T-Dap Vaccine
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says more pregnant women should get the vaccine known as T-Dap to keep their infants safe.Â
T-Dap protects against tetanus, diptheria and pertussis or whooping cough.
A new study shows only 14% of expectant mothers on Medicaid have been vaccinated. Â
Officials say efforts need to be stepped up to ensure more pregnant women get the shot.Â
