Symptoms of tetanus typically appear within 3-21 days after exposure to the bacteria.
If left untreated, tetanus can lead to death within 2-3 weeks after the onset of symptoms.
The recovery time for tetanus can vary depending on the severity of the infection. In mild cases, recovery can take 4-6 weeks, while more severe cases may take several months.
The tetanus vaccine usually takes about 2 weeks to become effective and provide protection against the bacteria.
After receiving the tetanus vaccine, it takes about 2-3 weeks for the body to develop immunity to the bacteria. This immunity can last for up to 10 years.
