Made me realize time for my tetanus as I got my last one in 2014.

It sounds to me like they are trying force us onto a different vaccine.

Better not be an mRNA platform “vaccine.”

Just another way to kill people off.

Tetanus can be pretty deadly.

When I was a kid, they used to give very large doses of tetanus vaccine, the idea being that it would protect for life. Seemed to work for me, but I finally got talked into another tetanus shot five or six years ago, my first in about 50 years.

I recently went to urgent care where they wanted me to get a booster. Since my distrust of the medical establishment has grown, I chose not to. I did some research. Before the tetanus shot, a whopping 300 cases a year were recorded.

Since then it’s still 50 cases. Both statistical rounding errors. In other words, I’m not getting the shot.

I got a tetanus shot a few years ago in response to a dog bite. I Called my doctor’s office, and they said to go to a WalMart for the injection. My arm was sore for a few afterward.

My mother was convinced that I was going to start dieing from rabies and that we should immediately leave for the Mayo Clinic. I had to get the pharmacists from the WalMart to convince my mother that I didn’t have rabies.

Who needs a tetanus shot with antibiotics?

Recently my dog bit me and tore my lower eyelid (my fault). Went to the ER and they gave me a Tetanus shot. They billed me $200 just for the shot.

We had a severe flood at our river cabin in 2017. The current flushed the septic system right into the house.
We had to completely gut the place and junk most of the furniture, then sanitize and refinish the inside.
Everyone had to get tetanus boosters and we were thankful to get them.
