Tetanus TT INJECTION

2018-02-18 07:48:58
Yesterday I had a wound on my knee after a scratch with cot. I had my tetvac 10rs injection in June 2017? is this 10rs tetvac just a booster one or vaccine itself? Do I need to take another tetvac injection? does this tetvac valid for 10 years or just 6 months? I am not sure about my childhood immunisation of Tetanus.
