It is essential for older adults to maintain up-to-date tetanus immunization, as vaccine-induced immunity diminishes over time. Failure to receive timely booster doses increases susceptibility to tetanus, which can result in severe complications and elevated morbidity in this age group. Adhering to recommended vaccination schedules ensures sustained protective immunity, mitigates the risk of infection from minor injuries, and contributes to broader public health efforts in preventing tetanus-related morbidity and mortality.
