tetanus killer disease

[dennis powell]

guys,

sorry lang kung nasa maling thread ako.

anyway, my nephew died this morning(around 10:00 am) caused by a tetanus.after two days daw nung nagkaroon sya ng maliit na maliit na sugat ay nilalagnat sya at bigla syang nagseseizure and nangingitim sya kaya dinala sya nang mga kapatid ko sa hospital,nilagyan kaagad sya ng mga aparatus sa katawan nya,binutasan yung lalamunan para makahinga lang sya kasi naglolock na daw ang jaw nya at di sya makahinga,pero nagseseizure pa rin sya,sabi ng doctor ay 50/50 chance daw ang buhay nya,completo sya sa gamot and completo sa gamit daw ang hostpital, nurses are monitored him and the doctors visited every 3-4 hours everyday,pero ika4 days nya kanina sa hospital since naadmit sya,bigla daw bumaba yung heartrate nya from 196 to 0,doctors and nurses are there,ginawa nila lahat,cpr,etc.pero talagang wala silang nagawa.

kaya advise ko sa inyo guys kung maagkakasugat kayo kahit gaano kaliit specially sa mga kids ninyo,hugasan nyo kaagad with soap,treat right away with antitetanus or consult your doctor if necessary just to prevent from that killer bacteria.

How old is your nephew? Was he vaccinated with anti-tetanus?

Very sad to hear. Were you able to trace the cause of the small inury?

[dennis powell]

someone post a link to this in the thread where someone was asking whether vaccinating their child was "worth it".

to think anti-tenatus is less P100 lang yata and the tenus toxoid (given kung nasugatan ka na) is less than P500 when given sa ordinary hospital.
