Janet - has it possibly occurred to you, that it's people like you who
create the trolls in a NG. Tetanus is a UK relevant topic - that's
something you don't want to grasp; I suppose that's because you don't
want me here. Well you should SAY SO in no un-certain terms, in your
charter, instead of leading a fellow on! I wouldn't have joined URG if
i thought i was un-welcome and barring a bunch of nice people on this
NG, i find my-self most un-welcome with almost anything i say being
interpreted/mis-interpreted as off-topic merely because i don't happen
to sit in the UK. Madam, i find your behaviour remarkably weird and
don't propose to post to this NG anymore.


As I've said in another post, good, but as has been carefully explained
to you, but you refuse to accept it, tetanus is not a great problem in
this country.

Goodbye.


This is all very interesting and I'm pleased to be learning something from
more knowledgeable people than I. But I don't understand why in the last
55 years I have been given 4 tetanus jabs, the first in the RAF and the
last one 2 days ago for a broken and lacerated finger mashed up uprooting
a tree.
The local A+E doctor, an experienced mature bloke, gave me a right ticking
off for not having had a booster in the last 17 years !!!
Hey, who am I to disagree.


I can only repeat, that some time ago I went to the doc having had some sort
of accident in the garden to get a tetanus injection, and he refused on the
grounds that I was imune.
