That's new for me that rose thorns can cause tetanus.


Here you only advised to get a tetanus shot when you cut yourself, or just in my case 2 months ago, the cat lay on the arm rest of the sofa and I was lieing on the floor. The cat woke up, fell and came down on my face and thereby scratched my neck. A cut of 15 cm was the damage.



So, even indoors is not safe!

ANY wound can cause tetanus, nobody treats rose thorns that's why they are the leading cause of tetanus, bigger more dangerous wounds usually are treated, that's why ideal thing to do is vaccination, a shot every ten years that's not a big prevention effort
