probably

Cool

i know you can get it from stepping on rusty nail

iirc

Really it has to be a rusty nail in *dirt*

It's mostly dirt that gives it to you

cutting your foot then walking in dirt after rain is about the best way to get it.

That's specific

Which is why few people get it

I always thought it was from the metal itself

good to know

nah

It's the dirt

yeah same

Laaaame

the metal just is what famously cuts your foot

na it can survive in rust for about 6 monthes though

Metal-based diseases sound so much cooler

Oh, wow.

That's impressive

the spores are what get ya

Did not know bacteria did spores

I am displeased

@Reaps are you gonna tell us what it was?

If I can find the paperwork, yes

I get bloodwork done roughly once a year

covering as many things as I can

oh okay

was it an std?

anyhow they had me on .. metronidazole i think for like 4 months

so i think that means i might have been contagious not sure.

how is it transmitted from person to person?

i would immagen any way things like tb or hep c are

not sure i was jsut told to take the meds and complied

If I'm reading this right, looks like I am immune to Hep B

not quite as exciting as being immune to tetanus I guess

hep b... wouldn;t that make you hella important

I'll tell myself that to improve my self-esteem

Pretty sure they have vaccines for it anyway, surely
