Solution

The correct option is B

Get a tetanus vaccine


When the skin is cut by a dirty or rusted object, there is a chance of getting tetanus as harmful microorganisms are present in the soil and dust.

These bacteria get into your body through wounds and become active which could be life-threatening. Hence, getting tetanus shot can come in handy.
