Evidence (2022-07-01): Hyderabad: Another poster was put up in the city ahead of Bharatiya Janata Party’s national executive meeting which is to be held on July 2 and 3. The new poster, in LB Nagar circle, accuses the Prime Minister of stealing from the public. The new hoarding shows characters from the hit show ‘Money heist’ in which masked criminals attempt to steal from a bank. The image is captioned "Mr N Modi, we only rob bank, you rob the whole nation." [...] This is not the first time that such hoardings and posters have been installed around the city. In February this year, when Prime Minister Narendra Modi was in Hyderabad on February 5 to unveil the Statue of Equality, a group of youngsters protested at the Hussain Sagar Lake asking several questions on job creation, ITIR for Telangana, Rail Coach Factory, Turmeric Board, Bayyaram Steel Factory and the setting up of an IIM in the state.

Evidence (2015-08-27): India has achieved a momentous public health feat – the elimination of maternal and neonatal tetanus. Maternal and neonatal tetanus is reduced to less than one case per 1 000 live births in all 675 districts of the country. WHO has validated this achievement adding India to the list of countries that have successfully battled this killer disease. [...] Maternal and neonatal tetanus elimination (MNTE) demonstrates India’s strong commitment and leadership that helped improve access to immunization, antenatal care services and skilled birth attendance in the most vulnerable populations – the poor, the remote and isolated communities where hygienic obstetric, postnatal practices and other health services were suboptimal or not accessible. [...] With India’s achievement, almost the entire WHO South-East Asia Region, barring a few districts in Indonesia, has now eliminated maternal and neonatal tetanus.

Evidence (2022-03-18): Maternal and neonatal tetanus (MNT)* remains a major cause of neonatal mortality with an 80%-100% case-fatality rate among insufficiently vaccinated mothers after unhygienic deliveries, especially in low-income countries (1). In 1989, the World Health Assembly endorsed elimination† of neonatal tetanus; the activity was relaunched in 1999 as the MNT elimination (MNTE)§ initiative, targeting 59¶ priority countries. MNTE strategies include 1) achieving ≥80% coverage with ≥2 doses of tetanus toxoid-containing vaccine (TTCV2+)** among women of reproductive age through routine and supplementary immunization activities (SIAs)†† in high-risk districts,§§ 2) achieving ≥70% of deliveries by a skilled birth attendant,¶¶ and 3) implementing neonatal tetanus case-based surveillance (2). This report summarizes progress toward achieving and sustaining MNTE during 2000-2020 and updates a previous report (3). By December 2020, 52 (88%) of 59 priority countries had conducted TTCV SIAs. Globally, infants protected at birth*** against tetanus increased from 74% (2000) to 86% (2020), and deliveries assisted by a skilled birth attendant increased from 64% (2000-2006) to 83% (2014-2020).

Claim: India has validated elimination of maternal and neo-natal tetanus in may 2015, before the global target of December 2015. (Govt. of India, 2018-05-26)
Evidence (2015-06-01): India is declared free of maternal and neonatal tetanus [...] India has reached its goal of eliminating maternal and neonatal tetanus, in what experts have heralded as a "significant public health milestone." The elimination of neonatal tetanus is defined as less than one case in 1000 live births in every district across the country, said the World Health Organization. The disease usually occurs in newborns through infection of the unhealed umbilical stump, especially when the stump is cut with a non-sterile instrument. Maternal tetanus is considered eliminated once neonatal tetanus elimination has been achieved.

We assessed sustainability of MNT elimination (MNTE) in 28 countries that were validated during 2011‒2020. [...] Maternal and Neonatal Tetanus Elimination - NT:

Evidence (2018-02-15): Unlike polio or smallpox, tetanus can’t be fully eradicated as the tenacious spores of bacteria causing tetanus – clostridium tetani – are widespread in the environment. WHO considers neonatal tetanus as eliminated from a country when its incidence becomes below one case per 1000 live births per year in every district of the country. Concerted efforts by the government in routine immunization over the years paved the way for the successful validation of the entire country for MNTE by mid-April 2015. This validation was conducted with the help of partners such as WHO, UNICEF and others. This is a huge achievement. After having successfully eradicated the wild poliovirus, Maternal and Neonatal Tetanus Elimination is another momentous landmark in India’s public health history.

Evidence (2020-12-01): Yaws and maternal and neonatal tetanus eliminated from India – UN health agency [...] The agency described maternal and neonatal tetanus elimination (MNTE) as a "momentous public health feat," as until a few decades ago the country reported 150,000 to 200,000 neonatal tetanus cases annually. Such tetanus cases are reduced to less than one case per 1,000 live births in all its 675 districts. [...] WHO further noted that Indonesia was also validated for the elimination of maternal and neonatal tetanus in May this year. With this, the agency said, the entire South-East Asia Region has achieved elimination of maternal and neonatal tetanus, becoming the second region, after European Region, to achieve the feat.

Evidence (2019-12-18): The Maternal and Neonatal Tetanus Elimination (MNTE) initiative aims to reduce MNT cases to such low levels that the disease is no longer a major public health problem. Unlike polio and smallpox, tetanus cannot be eradicated (tetanus spores are present in the environment worldwide), but through immunization of children, mothers, other women of reproductive age (WRA) and promotion of more hygienic deliveries and cord care practices, MNT can be eliminated (defined as less than one case of neonatal tetanus per 1000 live births in every district).

Evidence (2023-01-17): Sustaining Maternal and Neonatal Tetanus Elimination (MNTE) in countries that have been validated for elimination – progress and challenges [...] Maternal and neonatal tetanus (MNT) are forms of generalized tetanus that occur during pregnancy or within 6 weeks after (maternal) and within 3–28 days after birth (neonatal) (World Health Organization [WHO], 2018a). In the 1980s, the World Health Organization (WHO) estimated over one million deaths each year were attributable to neonatal tetanus, resulting in a global mortality rate of 6.7 neonatal tetanus deaths per 1000 live births (Roper et al., 2007). Decades of concerted effort targeting vaccination coverage, birth hygiene, sterile umbilical cord care, and surveillance has successfully lowered MNT incidence rates worldwide (Thwaites et al., 2015; WHO, 2020a). By 2018, WHO estimated 25,000 deaths occurred due to neonatal tetanus, around a 97.5% increase from the 1980s (WHO, 2020b). WHO defines MNT elimination as the occurrence of less than one neonatal case per 1000 live births (WHO, 2018a, 2018b). MNT has been eliminated in the Region of the Americas in 2017 and in Europe in 2010, but remains a leading cause of preventable neonatal mortality in many African, Eastern Mediterranean, and Southeast Asian countries (Dikici, 2016; Pan American Health Organization [PAHO], 2017; WHO, 2020a).

Evidence (2019-04-02): The first claim is that ‘India has validated elimination of maternal and neo-natal tetanus in May 2015, before the global target of December 2015’. A response in Lok Sabha from August 2016 stated that ‘WHO has certified Maternal and Neonatal Tetanus Elimination (MNTE) in India in May 2015, well before the global target date of December 2015. WHO has also certified India to be free from YAWS, a chronic bacterial disease, in May 2016’. [...] Fact: WHO has certified Maternal and Neonatal Tetanus Elimination (MNTE) in India in May 2015, well before the global target date of December 2015. Hence, the claim is TRUE.

Evidence (2019-11-06): A vaccine has for the first time in history eradicated a human disease, smallpox. Efforts to eradicate polio are in the final stages, with only two countries, Afghanistan and Pakistan, still experiencing wild transmission of the polio virus. All countries with the exception of 13 have eliminated neonatal and maternal tetanus. Without vaccination, there would be far more infections that require antibiotic therapy, exacerbating the major problem of drug-resistant infections.
