Killed/inactivated vaccines are good because they __________________ , but on the other hand _________________________ . establish a limited infection which boosts the immune response; they can retain some degree of virulence do not cause any side effects; they are not as effective because they do not establish any infection or inflammation

One problem with vaccines that contain killed pathogens is that they cannot be given to immunocompromised people. the pathogen may reactivate and cause disease. They may not stimulate a strong response. they may stimulate an excessive immune response.

All of the following are disadvantages of an attenuated vaccine except: Exogenous protein contaminants may be present The live vaccine may revert to a more virulent form Antibody response is not as good as with inactivated viruses None of the above; these are all disadvantages of live virus Live viruses generally require refrigeration

Select the answers to the following questions: One problem with vaccines that contain killed pathogens is that. Attenuated vaccines typically cause a stronger immune response because. A toxoid, which contains denatured toxin from a pathogen, would best be described as an example of. they cannot be given to immunocompromised people. they are given to people with a weakened immune system. Subunit vaccine. Recombinant vaccine. the pathogens used in these vaccines are extremely virulent. they may not stimulate a strong response. Killed vaccine. they are given to people who have a very strong immune system. the pathogen can still multiply in the host. large numbers of pathogens are used in them. Attenuated vaccine. the pathogen may reactivate and cause disease. they may stimulate an excessive immune response. Inactivated vaccine. they can only be given to immunocompromised people.
