Tetanus vaccine
I got tetanus shot 2months ago, today I got minor cut from iron vegetable cutter. Should I need the shot again?
I heard that vaccine shot protection wouldn't last 6months. Is it true?

If you have been vaccinated normally as a child and have got boosters the vaccine should be good for another 5 years.
