English term or phrase: DTP
This could be a really dumb question, but does anybody knows what DTP means?

a Tetanus/Diphtheria (Td) is required every 10 years or may be given 5 years after the last DTP.

Thanks for your help!

vacuna triple


Explanation:
DTP - a diphtheria tetanus pertussis toxoid injection
Es la "triple".
Al menos en Venezuela y Argentina, se conoce como la vacuna TRIPLE a aquella que inmuniza contra la difteria, la tosferina (o pertusis)y tétanos. Eso dice el boletín de inmunizaciones de mis tes hijos: TRIPLE (difteria, tosferina, tétanos).


DTP: Vacuna antidifteria-tétanos-pertussis

no confundir con la triple viral o vírica


Explanation:
Me olvidé de aclarar.

La triple viral es la vacuna que protege contra sarampión, paperas y rubeola.
La que mencioné antes es la "triple" a secas o "triple bacteriana".
