Some older vaccines used a weakened strain of the pathogenic virus in the injection in the hope that the weakened virus would induce an immune response without causing disease. The virus vectors used in genetic engineering have all the harmful virus genes cut out and replaced with the foreign gene, such as one that makes a protein that is absent in the human patient. Which type of viral vaccine would you prefer to take as the safest option? Why?
Given that many people are hesitant with vaccines, how will you fight anti-vaccine myth and misconception with scientific facts? How does vaccination refusal affect the community?
Should new vaccines be tested in children (as is currently done in adults) before they are allowed on the market? Why or why not?
