RE: Botulism, Measles, and What We REALLY Should Fear
Awesome comment!
O yes, and on the tetanus, no shot can prevent you from getting it, it is proper wound care that prevents it.
I did a bit of research on that when my husband cut his head at work one day and ended up refusing their tetanus shot that they thought was so great because it also had the whooping cough vaccine.
A few months after that, my oldest son, who was about 22 and hunting deer at the time, accidentally ran a dirty knife, covered in deer blood through his hand (long story), it was pretty bad. When the doctor suggested a tetanus shot after doing an excellent job washing out the wound as he should have (I know because I watched the whole thing), Ryan refused it because he had been listening to my preaching long enough! haha! Well, he healed up amazingly well without that stupid shot and no need for antibiotics.
There is actually a tetanus immunoglobulin shot that the hospital should give you if they truly suspect tetanus.
If they don't offer you that (it is VERY rare for them to offer it) than they don't truly believe that you are at risk of tetanus. Yet when people have asked for the immunoglobulin, very often the hospitals will say that they don't even have any on hand. The vaccine can't possibly work after-the-fact of being exposed.

Wow, I did not know that about the immunoglobulin, not surprising they rarely have it on hand.
