While on a backpacking trip you are bitten by a poisonous snake and transferred to the nearest hospital, where you receive human immunoglobulin treatment against the poisonous snake venom. You recover from your snakebite and return home. One year later during an environmental studies field trip, you are bitten once again by the same type of snake. Please select the correct answers: O Compared to the first snakebite, are you equally sensitive to the venom from the second bite. There are no residual cells or antibodies that were involved in the original encounter with this snake venom and, therefore, no recall response. You are not protected from the second bite. The immunoglobulin you received 1 year ago protected you temporarily but those antibodies are now gone and you have no memory B cells to produce new antibodies during the second exposure. O Antibodies in the serum bound to the snake venom and neutralized its ability to cause damage. Phagocytes then engulfed and destroyed antibody-coated venom. Because the snake venom was coated with antibodies, naïve B cells were not activated during the first exposure and therefore no adaptive immune response was

Case history showed she had been collecting samples from caves close to the border with the Democratic Republic of the Congo which had significant bat activity.According to laboratory results, the patient has proteinuria, increased serum transaminases, leukopenia (1x109 /L), and thrombocytopenia (10x109 /L). She has normal lung function but an enlarged liver and spleen. Blood film screening for malaria was negative as well as diagnostic tests for the following haemorrhagic viruses: Dengue fever virus, Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever virus, Marburg virus, Rift Valley fever virus, Lassa fever virus and…
You are a volunteer for Nurses Without Borders and are being sent to a country in Africa. You are excited, because you will have opportunities to go on safari, but you are also somewhat concerned because you have learned from the CDC website that there is currently cholera in the country to which you are going. Patients with cholera experience vomiting and severe diarrhea, producing several liters of liquid stool in a day. This results in signs of dehydration, including sunken eyes, muscle cramps, and in a few cases, convulsions and death. Cholera is caused by the bacterium Vibrio cholerae. You make a list of questions about V. cholerae that you answer with the help of your nursing school study group. In order to treat cholera, antiviral medication must be given to get rid of the bacteriophage that carries the cholera toxin gene. True or False
