Tetanus Is Threat To Spring Gardeners

But sometimes these little scratches can be more serious. Sometimes they are the channel through which you could get tetanus.

nity, your doctor may inject tetanus antitoxin. An emergency shot is not always effective. Your only long-range guarantee against tetanus is immunization with tetanus toxoid.
