Centers for Disease Control and Prevention infographic about<unk> . If a pregnant mother is identified as being infected with<unk> , treatment can effectively prevent<unk>  from developing in the fetus, especially if she is treated before the sixteenth week of pregnancy. The fetus is at greatest risk of contracting<unk>  when the mother is in the early stages of infection, but the disease can be passed at any point during pregnancy, even during delivery (if the child had not already contracted it). A woman in the secondary stage of<unk>  decreases her fetus's risk of developing<unk>  by 98% if she receives treatment before the last month of pregnancy. An affected child can be treated using antibiotics much like an adult; however, any developmental symptoms are likely to be permanent. Kassowitz's law is an empirical observation used in context of<unk>  stating that the greater the duration between the infection of the mother and conception, the better the outcome for the infant. Features of a better outcome include less chance of stillbirth and of developing<unk> . The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends treating symptomatic or babies born to an infected mother with unknown treatment status with procaine penicillin G, 50,000 U/kg dose IM a day in a single dose for 10 days. Treatment for these babies can vary on a case by case basis. Treatment cannot reverse any deformities, brain, or permanent tissue damage that has already occurred. A Cochrane review found that antibiotics may be effective for serological cure but in general the evidence around the effectiveness of antibiotics for<unk>  is uncertain due to the poor methodological quality of the small number of trials that have been conducted.
