Abstract
The vaccinal preventive measures which were made compulsory since 1963 for the new working levies of some professional high risk categories, and since 1968 for the newborns, contributed to a large extent to the tetanus control in our country. In the last twenty years a progressive drop in the notified tetanus cases was observed. The epidemiology of this disease is conditioned, on the one hand by the correct application of the legal directions in force; on the other hand, by the level of health education, acquired by those who have not yet been involved, so far, by the compulsory antitetanus vaccination.Pubblicazioni consigliate
