Original Note:
The reason that only two people die of tetanus per year in the US is because of the near-universal application of the vaccine. Without the vaccine, tetanus has a lethality rate of 20% or higher, even with intensive medical care. Without care, the rate may be around 90%. https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/drugs/24283-tetanus-shot https://wwwnc.cdc.gov/travel/yellowbook/2024/infections-diseases/tetanus#clinical
