I want to ask that for how long does a tetanus shot can last? And do I need to worry if I got a very minor scratch from a cat but yes it bled but not much. Should I again get a tetanus shot? Last one I took was 9 months ago.

I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you. These vaccines protect over 95% of people from disease for approximately 10 years. Currently the cdc advisory committee on immunization practices recommends a booster shot every 10 years. Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.
