Background: Tetanus is an infectious disease caused by the bacterium Clostridium tetani, which produces a neurotoxin (tetanospasmin) that causes spastic paralysis. This disease can only be prevented by vaccination. Tetanus is very rare in EU countries, where it mainly affects people over 60 years of age. Tetanus is a serious health problem in countries with low vaccination rates and poor hygiene conditions, and neonatal tetanus is a particularly significant problem in these countries. In Poland, according to the Vaccination Program, mandatory vaccinations against tetanus should be given to children and adolescents up to the age of 19. Objective: The aim of the study was to assess the epidemiological situation of tetanus in Poland in 2020-2022. Material and methods: The assessment of the epidemiological situation of tetanus in Poland in 2020-2022 was made based on the interpretation of data from the annual bulletins "Infectious diseases and poisonings in Poland" for 2020-2022 and the bulletins "Vaccinations in Poland" for 2020-2022 as well as data from individual epidemiological reports on diseases registered in the "Epibaza" system. Results: In 2020, 2 cases of tetanus were registered in Poland, in 2021 – 5 cases, and in 2022 also 5 cases. The total incidence in 2020 was 0.005 per 100 000 people, in 2021 and 2022 – 0.013 per 100 000 and was lower compared to the median for 2015-2019 (0.031). In 2020-2021, all reports concerned hospitalized people, while in 2022 one person was treated as an outpatient. No cases were recorded in people under 30 years of age. Conclusions: In Poland, a decrease in the number of reported tetanus cases was observed in 2020-2022 compared to previous years. Sporadic tetanus cases in Poland are recorded mainly in older age groups but also occur among adults under 60 years of age. The cases can be associated with the lack of booster vaccinations in adults.
