Can a person vaccinated for tetanus transmit bacteria through a kiss?

Hello. If your partner took the 3rd dose of tetanus vaccine today, is there a possibility that during kissing a few hours later he could pass the bacteria of this disease to me? Maybe it's a stupid question, but I'm very stressed that I could get infected (I'm currently healing herpes) even though when I was a small child I was vaccinated against tetanus. I don't want to get too stressed and stressed, but is it real?

There is no risk of transmitting tetanus from a person vaccinated by kissing. The tetanus vaccine is inactivated, does not contain bacteria, but only a toxin that causes the symptoms of the disease and is produced by bacteria. Immunity against tetanus decreases over time, so adults are recommended booster doses of the vaccine every 10 years.
