(TD)
Tetanus (a.k.a. lockjaw) is an infection that affects the nerves that control your muscles.
Diphtheria is caused by a bacterium that destroys healthy tissue in the respiratory system.
The diphtheria tetanus vaccine in Toronto is a life-saving vaccine that helps protect against diphtheria and tetanus. Diphtheria is a highly contagious disease that can cause severe respiratory illness, and tetanus is a potentially fatal infection that can cause muscle spasms and paralysis. The diphtheria tetanus vaccine is 95% effective in preventing diphtheria and 99% effective in preventing tetanus. It is important to get the diphtheria tetanus vaccine in Toronto, Richmond Hill, North York, Mississauga, and Etobicoke as soon as possible, as it can take up to two weeks for the vaccine to become fully effective.
Contact the Travel Vaccine Clinic for more information on receiving this vaccine.
