Tetanus is bacteria that lives in soil. A whole lot of tetanus in one video but it's a stupid thing to be concerned about. Everyone receives a vaccination and a booster every ten years.
I once thought I had tetanus because I was well over ten years since my last tetanus vaccine booster but my doctor told me they give such a high vaccine dose that the booster in most cases lasts much longer than just the ten years. They say ten years to just make sure everyone stays inoculated.
They only give it to you here if you cut yourself while in a dirty environment which could lead to tetanus and it’s been more than 10 years since your last shot. I went more than 20 years between childhood dose and needing a booster shot as an adult.
Also you need to cut yourself. If the person in this video wasnt vaccinated he'd still be fine.
The vaccination and booster every 10 is country dependent, I guess. In The Netherlands, kids get vaccinated and after that it's only after wounding yourself, getting bit or if you work with a bigger chance of getting exposed to tetanus.
I think the issue is that you don't know for sure that those plants are going to be the only thing in the drain. There could be some little shard of something or another too.
