Do You Really Need a Tetanus Booster?
Results of a study published in 2016 on the persistence of vaccine-induced antibody responses to tetanus and diphtheria in 546 adults showed that the 10-year adult booster vaccination schedule should be re-examined. And while we shouldn’t blindly adopt the practices of other countries, it is noteworthy that the UK doesn’t administer the any adult booster vaccinations after the initial 5-dose immunization series. Most European countries recommend much longer intervals between vaccines.[1]
Mathematical models suggest that 95% of adults fully vaccinated in childhood against both diphtheria and tetanus remain protected against these two diseases for over 30 years. Moreover, the protection against tetanus for over 95% of the population lasts more than 64 years. [2] Basically, if you’re reading this, you probably don’t need tetanus or diphtheria boosters for the rest of your life.
