my husband fell and injured himself at work yesterday. he has a huge deep tissue bruise on his thigh with a few shallow scrapes. as part of the company's process when an injury happens, he talked to a nurse or some such medical professional over the phone at a hotline his company uses for these things. they recommended he receive a tetanus shot without even viewing the injury! it's not a deep puncture or crush would, he wasn't rolling around in manure when it happened! they didn't ask him if he's received a booster in the last five years (which he has by the way), they just told him to go get one. that really ticks me off! it's bad advice. he doesn't need a tetanus shot for a bruise (which is a really nasty bruise) and some scratches. i've seriously been scratched by my cat more deeply, am i supposed to get a tetanus booster every time that happens?
It just ticks me off that everything is automatically: vaccinate, vaccinate, vaccinate.
