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.
Best Answer: It's recommended that you have a tetanus shot every ten years. However, if you have a possible exposure, they recommend that you get a shot if it's been 5 years or more since your last booster.o everyone should keep their tetanus up-to-date. Tetanus has a 30% fatality rate. If you are up-to-date with your tetanus shots, you need a booster after 5 years if you get a dirty, non-minor type wound.
