Summary

Tetanus incidence remained stable in 2016 with 12 cases. Fatalities occurred exclusively in individuals aged 70 and older, highlighting the importance of vaccination for tetanus prevention.

Area of Science:

  • Epidemiology
  • Infectious Diseases

Background:

  • Tetanus is an environmental infection.
  • Individual immunity is crucial for prevention.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To report tetanus incidence data for 2016.
  • To categorize cases within epidemiological surveillance frameworks.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of individual tetanus case forms.
  • Utilizing data from the "Infectious Diseases and Poisoning in Poland in 2016" bulletin.

Main Results:

  • 12 tetanus cases were recorded in 2016, consistent with 2015.
  • Equal distribution of cases between males and females (six each).
  • Three fatalities occurred, all in individuals aged 70 and above.
