Tetanus is not directly transmitted from person to person. Spores may be introduced through contaminated puncture wounds, lacerations or burns.

An anti-tetanus injection is given if a person meets with an accident and has cuts or wounds.
This is because it is a serious condition caused by a bacteria named Clostridium tetani.
This bacteria usually thrives in the soil.

The toxin attaches with the nerves and also interferes wt normal activities of the brain and can also lead to death.
