Author: The Alabama Department of Public Health is recommending that emergency workers and others involved in tornado cleanup ensure they are up-to-date on tetanus vaccination.
A tetanus booster is needed if it has been more than 10 years since an individual’s last booster or if the person can’t remember when they last received one, state officials said.
