Why Get the DTP Vaccine?

The DTP vaccine protects against three serious diseases:

✅ Diphtheria – A bacterial infection that affects the throat and can lead to breathing difficulties, heart problems, and paralysis.
✅ Tetanus – Also known as "lockjaw," tetanus is a bacterial infection that affects the nervous system, leading to muscle stiffness and spasms.
✅ Polio – A viral disease that can cause paralysis and even be life-threatening.

The NHS recommends booster doses for adults every 10 years if travelling to high-risk areas.
