Journal Article
Maternal Immunization
2017
Overview
Infants can be protected against a variety of dangerous infections early in life through immunity transferred from their mothers. This article reviews the efficacy of maternal immunization in the prevention of infections in babies too young to be immunized directly.
Vaccines have been one of the most useful tools for achieving substantial reductions in childhood mortality. However, progress in reducing deaths has been slower for infants too young to be vaccinated than for infants and children old enough to receive vaccines.

Immunization schedules start when infants are 2 months of age in the United States and many other high- and middle-income countries and 6 weeks of age in most low-income countries. The primary immunization schedule is not complete until infants are 6 months of age in most high- and middle-income countries and 14 weeks of age in most low-income countries. . . .
