Tetanus Shot for Stapler pin cut

2022-08-28 19:57:16
I took a tetanus shot about 5 years ago for a cut I had. Now today I again cut myself with a stapler pin that came from outside my house. Do I need to get a tetanus shot again?

No. You need not take a tetanus shot for a staple pin but you should take three doses of Tetanus vaccination which will give you immunity for 5 years. For details please consult me.
