Tetanus Toxoid Vaccine Uptake and Associated Factors Among Reproductive Age Women in Mogadishu, Somalia: A Cross-Sectional Study
TT vaccination coverage among women was low. Older age, planned pregnancy, antenatal care at health centers, visits by health extension workers, and good behavior of health workers were associated with higher protection, while low household income was linked to lower uptake. Strengthening targeted interventions is needed to improve TT coverage.
