Best Answer

humans are susceptible to tetanus, it is not considered contagious from an affected animal since a wound is necessary for incubation of the bacteria. Exposed people should consult their physicians for specific recommendations.

The incubation period for Tetanus is usually 3 - 21 day's.

Yes. Though dogs cannot contract typhoid themselves they can pick up the bacteria from consuming or fooling with contaminated food, water or feces. In turn, they can give it to humans by their licking, drinking the same water or people contact with their feces.

Can you Give all the precautions for typhoid?

Sanitation and hygiene are the critical measures that can be taken to prevent typhoid. Typhoid does not affect animals and therefore transmission is only from human to human. Typhoid can only spread in environments where human feces or urine are able to come into contact with food or drinking water. Careful food preparation and washing of hands are crucial to preventing typhoid. There are also two vaccines available to prevent typhoid.
