Why does the jaw “lock” in
lockjaw? This disease is given
this name because the muscles
of the neck, jaws and throat
are always the first to mani
fest the symptoms. The most
accepted name
for the disease
is tetanus
meaning “rig
id.”
It is caused
by a germ that
packs a poison
500 times more
deadly than strychnine. Sa
vages of the New Hebrides
poisoned their arrow heads
with the dirt from crab holes
in the swamps. This dirt was
found to contain a pure growth
of tetanus germs.
All suspicious wounds
should receive prompt atten
tion by a doctor. If the wound
is contaminated with garden
earth, street dust, house dirt
or other material that can
carry the tetanus germ—an
Injection of tetanus antitoxin
is always advisable.
