BOOK YOUR TETANUS VACCINATION TODAY

Tetanus is a serious disease caused by bacteria that live in soil. If these bacteria get into a cut or wound, they can release a poison that affects your nerves and causes your muscles to stiffen and spasm painfully.


Vaccination is a safe and effective way to protect you from tetanus.

The Australian Immunisation Handbook recommends tetanus vaccination for specific groups including:


* routine vaccination in infants, children and adolescents
* routine booster vaccination in adults, including travellers to countries where health services are difficult to access
* people who have a tetanus-prone wound
* vaccination of people who have missed doses of tetanus-containing vaccine.

If you're eligible, you can get the tetanus vaccine for free under the National Immunisation Program.
