Fall is a time where a lot of attention is given to Immunizations, and the promotion of staying up to date on them. While the flu shot may get most of the attention, Norman Mahnomen Public Health is also promoting the importance of being up to date on your Tetanus Shot. Kelsey Merkens of Norman Mahnomen Public Health tells us more. 

Merkens says a tetanus shot is also important for women who are pregnant, and even children. 

People with questions regarding the Tetanus Shot can talk to their local public health office, or primary care provider.
