Which of the following statement regarding the whole-pathogen vaccine is/are correct (B) Live attenuated whole-pathogen vaccines are more effective to elicit a robust immune response, and often a single dose is sufficient. A and B are correct (A) Inactivated whole-pathogen vaccines are usually less immunogenic and often require booster doses/s A and C are correct (C) Inactivated whole-pathogen vaccines never cause disease but live attenuated vaccines always cause a mild disease.

Two newly developed vaccine candidates (A and B) are tested in mice for their ability to elicit high concentrations of anti-meningococcal antibodies that would provide mucosal as well as bloodstream protection. Also, the ideal candidate vaccine should also provide long-lasting immunity to the infection. The figure below shows the responses to a primary, followed by a secondary immunization to each of the two candidate vaccines. a) Which candidate vaccine elicits the preferred response? What are the three aspects of the preferred response that make it the candidate vaccine of choice? b) What is the likely composition of each vaccine and what evidence from the information above are used to lead to your conclusions? c) To confirm the choice of the preferred candidate vaccine, what type of additional information from the vaccine trials in mice shown above would support this conclusion? Name two additional features of the secondary antibody response to each candidate vaccine that could be…
It used to be that our only method of creating vaccines was to use dead or weakened pathogens. That is no longer the case - what are some newer options that are available to researchers?
Which one of the following most correctly describes vaccines containing live, attenuated pathogens? A.They are administered by injection. B.They provide little cell-mediated immunity. C.There is no possibility for reversion to pathogenic form. D.Pathogen does not multiply in human hosts E.They provide extended, sometimes life-long immunity.
Each year the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention publish a schedule of recommended vaccinations for infants, children, adolescents, and adults. Parents may refuse recommended vaccinations for their infant, child, or adolescent based on religious or philosophical beliefs or fears regarding the safety of vaccines. What ethical principles need to be considered when dealing with patients and their families who refuse recommended vaccines? How would you approach a parent who refuses the recommended vaccines for their 2-month old infant due to the fear that vaccines can cause autism?
Despite our advancement in Science and Technology, thanks to the invention of the early scientists Robert Hooke and Antonie Philips van Leeuwenhoek that paved the way to the discovery of cells and the cure of many diseases, why is it that there are still many who are hesitant to have themselves immunized by COVID-19 vaccines?

How can serological testing be used to study the long-term immunity and antibody responses in individuals who have been infected with emerging viral diseases, such as COVID-19, and how can this knowledge inform public health strategies, such as vaccination campaigns and disease surveillance?
What is the mechanism behind the success of vaccines to eradicate or reduce infectious diseases such as smallpox and polio?
Hypothetically, HPV was used to cure cancer where the cancer was recognized to be foreign by our host immune response. So therefore, which of the following best illustrates how HPV was used to cure cancer?a. The HPV induced a type IV hypersensitivity immune responseb. The HPV induced a type III hypersensitivity immune responsec. The HPV induced a type II hypersensitivity immune responsed. The HPV induced a type I hypersensitivity immune responsee. The HPV induced a type IV autoimmune response
Which of the following statements best explains why the immune system can continue to make antibodies after treatment with the anti-CD20 antibody rituximab? a. New CD20-positive B cells are reconstituted so quickly that antibody concentration during and after treatment is unaffected. b. Rituximab stimulates B-cell proliferation, so for a short while after its administration there is actually an increase in antibody concentration. c. Rituximab is a mouse monoclonal antibody and therefore its Fc region is unable to bind to the surface d. Plasma cells do not express CD20 on their cell surface, and antibody production by these cells continues unhampered. e. Rituximab stimulates anti-antibody production, leading to its rapid clearance by the body.
Name the different types of immune responses that vaccines aim to induce.
Even though the oral polio vaccine is not used in the developed world, it is still widely used in the developing world, in part because it confers what might be called “accidental” herd immunity. Can you speculate on what this is?
