Can contact with Boostrix after breaking an ampoule be dangerous to health?

Good morning. What if the boostrix vaccine rolls up? Can something bad happen through skin contact or accidental oral ingress? I also do not understand why information on this subject cannot be found anywhere. I think there should be some procedure to follow.

There is no risk of getting sick if you have been in contact with a Boostrix vaccine suspension after the pre-filled syringe ruptures. Boostrix is an inactivated vaccine, which means that pathogenic microorganisms are killed and do not pose a danger when in contact with the skin. Damaged elements of the vaccine should be disposed of according to the general drug recommendations: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jak-i-gdzie-wyrzucac-leki
