> Get a tetanus shot as soon as possible if you have a dirty cut If you were to go for that, would they be giving you a tetanus-only shot or a combined TDP shot? That might be a significant difference that the paper should have explored. At least in the few European countries I know of, I believe TDP is something we get by default as part of the many childhood vaccinations. Though I do believe most adults stop getting the regular boosters. In this context, I don't know how to interpret the article's "Patients either had or did not have a Tdap vaccination by the start of either of two index periods" -- what group would you be in if you had it 50 years ago? What exactly is an "adult vaccination", and does it matter if you were vaccinated as an adult but it was 30 years ago?
