Tetanus dangerous but preventable
Tetanus or lockjaw is one of the most dangerous diseases, with about 60 percent mortality in untreated cases. The AMA notes it is nearly preventable by immunization, yet about three quarters of adults lack immunity due to missed shots or boosters. Spores in soil invade via wounds, and once in the body produce toxins that attack nerve centers causing muscle spasms and rigid jaw.
