Do Tetanus vaccine contains killing tetanus organisms?

In: Health, Conditions and Diseases, Tetanus [Edit categories]

Answer:

no.. when you get a vaccine it gives you a little bit of the bacteria from the disease so your body builds an immunity to it. So no, the tetanus vaccine DOES NOT kill tetanus organisms, but deposits tetanus into your body! sounds crazy right?
