My daughter got a squirrel bite. do i need take her to hospital? she is 15. she got tetanus vaccinein 2009.

Covered for tetanus: With a tetanus booster in 2009 she is covered for that possibility.I would be more concerned about the issue of a wound infection which would become evident within days.If the wound site is swelling & red it should be looked at.
