Abstract
1. The risk of developing neonatal tetanus is definitely higher if the baby is delivered at home than delivered in the hospital. 2. The risk of developing neonatal tetanus seems to be slightly lowered if delivery is undertaken by the health personnel though the difference is not statistically significant. 3. The peak season is during the lat part of the rainy season. 4. Some townships have a definite higher incidence of neonatal tetanus than others.
