Tetanus Immunization Emerges as Army Policy
The article explains tetanus as a persistent threat and outlines the safer toxoid method using formaldehyde to render the toxin non-poisonous. It notes the British army will offer voluntary inoculation to regular troops, requiring two injections six weeks apart, with no simple test to prove exposure or immunity, though trials show reactions are comparable to diphtheria toxoid injections.

The article notes experimental support for a combined vaccine against tetanus, diphtheria, and typhoid, with potential to protect children using one inoculation schedule. It warns that lockjaw germs are common in soil and surroundings and urges immediate tetanus inoculation after penetrating wounds, especially from explosions or July Fourth injuries.
