Is there a vaccination for tetanus?

Yes there is a vaccine for tetanus. It is given as a preventative to babies in a three part series together with the vaccine for Diptheria and acellular Pertussis. The vaccine is known as DTaP. Every ten years people should get a Tetanus booster shot. The booster, again is not given alone, but rather as part of the Tdap vaccine. The change in name indicates that the same amount of tetanus toxoid is injected, but a smaller portion of diptheria toxoid and acellular pertussis is injected.
