    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.
