My grandma got it back in the sixties after stabbing herself with a sewing needle...and lived through it.

As a child, I was always barefoot (they couldn't keep shoes on me).
Every time I stepped on a nail I got a tetanus shot.
It was funny, we called the disease lockjaw but the shot tetanus.

My Grandfather was a baker and owned a bakery. He cut his finger and didn't go to the hospital for a tetanus shot. Died five days later. The knife wasn't rusty but no matter.

My granddaughter went to the doc for a bite on a finger from a horse. Doc recommended tetanus. Daughter called U of Iowa Vet school who said horses immunized against tetanus cannot be carriers. Daughter advises Doc who, in checking her own sources, agreed. This was more than a little discouraging.
