Very. Tetanus is different from a lot of Bacteria, because they can survive for a while on deteriorating surfaces. A lot of these surfaces though are more dangerous, because these are on things that have a high chance of creating an opening for the bacteria to enter the bloodstream. Rusty nails and razors are a very common source of Tetanus.
