by Pat Goss. Timely changing of your timing belt is an often overlooked car care service, and thatâs not good! And Pat Goss tells us why down at Gossâ Garage. For many years, vehicle manufacturers have elected to use timing belts to drive the camshafts in the top of the engine to operate the valves that let fuel into the engine and let exhaust out. But these belts, well, theyâre made of rubber and they ware out over time so they need periodic replacement.
FACT: People with tetanus may have to spend several weeks in the hospital under intensive care and frequently need to be on a ventilator. FACT: For adults, a tetanus-diphtheria booster (Td) every 10 years gives protection against both tetanus and diphtheria. A tetanus-diphtheria-acellular pertussis (Tdap) vaccine should be given to adults in place of one Td vaccine to protect them against pertussis (whooping cough), too.
Answers From Experts & Organizations (1) SUCCESS! A. You need to get another tetanus shot.... Yes, the vaccine lasts ten years, but not to the day or month. To be safe, get another one and you will be good for ten more years. The vaccine is 100% effective, and tetanus (the disease) is just about 100% fatal, so it pays to be safe.
