Question

TT is given against

A.

Typhoid

B.

Tetanus

C.

Tuberculosis

D.

Toxins

Correct option is B

TT stands for Tetanus Toxoid, which is given to prevent tetanus, a serious bacterial infection. The TT vaccine stimulates the body to produce antibodies against tetanus toxins, which are produced by Clostridium tetani, commonly found in soil and dust.
Information Booster:
 Tetanus affects the nervous system and can cause severe muscle spasms.
 The TT vaccine is often given after an injury to prevent tetanus.
 It's also administered as part of the DTP (Diphtheria, Tetanus, and Pertussis) vaccine in childhood immunizations.
 Tetanus is preventable through vaccination, but untreated cases can be fatal.
Additional Knowledge:
 Typhoid (option a) is prevented with the typhoid vaccine, not TT.
 Tuberculosis (option c) is prevented with the BCG vaccine.
 Toxins (option d) refer to various harmful substances but not specifically tetanus toxins.
