What precautions should you take to avoid diphtheria?

Diphtheria is a very dangerous disease that can lead to death. Diphtheria is transmitted by household and food routes, and can also be airborne. Immunity in those who have been ill is not formed, that is, it is possible to get sick a second time, but in a milder form. Now there are practically no outbreaks of morbidity, but it is imperative to monitor the state of health. Vaccination is the safest way to avoid getting diphtheria. Serum is injected into the body, and this serum develops immunity. It is advisable to put it once every 10 years.
