You absolutely can die from tetanus if you do not receive the treatment, which is a LONG and painful process. In fact, that's why everyone is so adamant that you receive the vaccine known as a "tetanus shot."

Who found a cure for tetanus?

The development of a tetanus vaccine can be attributed to Emil von Behring, who, in the late 19th century, discovered that the toxin produced by the tetanus bacterium could be neutralized by serum from immunized animals. This led to the creation of the first tetanus antitoxin, which was used for prevention and treatment. While there isn't a "cure" for tetanus once contracted, vaccination remains the most effective method for preventing the disease.

When you are vaccinated with anti rabies is it associated with anti tetanus vaccine?

No, the anti-rabies vaccine and the anti-tetanus vaccine are not directly associated; they are separate vaccines targeting different diseases. The anti-rabies vaccine is administered following a potential rabies exposure, while the anti-tetanus vaccine is given to prevent tetanus infection. However, in some cases of animal bites, if the patient's tetanus vaccination status is not up to date, a tetanus booster may be given alongside the rabies vaccine as part of the treatment protocol. Always consult a healthcare professional for specific recommendations.
