Summary Introduction
Introduction:
Immunization is a process that makes a person immune against infection. A biological preparation that offers immunity against a particular disease is termed as a vaccine. There are different types of vaccines available. They are attenuated vaccines, killed vaccines, toxoid vaccines, and combined vaccines.

True or false
1. Increased susceptibility to pyogenic (pus-forming) bacterial infections often points to a defect in antibody, complement, or phagocytotic function.
2. The population of HIV viral variants circulating in the human population is extremely diverse, which has hampered development of an HIV vaccine for all people. True or False: Within a given individual, all HIV viruses are genetically identical, leading to efficient elimination of virus on a per-patient basis.

"The successful use of gene therapy to cure SCID syndrome (2000) is hoped to be a permanent cure for those patients because a good copy of the problem gene was inserted into the patients' blood stem cells in the bone marrow (hematopoietic stem cells). Once white blood cells enter the blood stream they have a limited life span, on the order of a few week to months. The blood stem cells are the cells that create more white blood cells to replace those that are lost. If the gene was only inserted into the circulating mature white blood cells, the patient would only be temporarily cured until those cells were used up or died." The current gene therapy approaches to cure CF involve inserting a functional CFTR gene into the mature epithelial cells of the lungs.

- Identify all correct statements below re. the D614G mutant of SARS-CoV-2: The D614G mutant SARS-CoV-2 has markedly higher binding affinity for the ACE2 receptors than the original virus. The D614G mutant of SARS-CoV-2 transmits more efficiently in human populations than the original virus. The D614G mutant of SARS-CoV-2 replicates to higher titer than the original virus in cell lines and in human primary lung cell culture. When the original and the D614G mutant of SARS-CoV-2 are mixed to co-infect a group of a single-species of animals that is susceptible to infection, the original virus outperforms the D614G mutant. When the original and the D614G mutant of SARS-CoV-2 are mixed to co-infect a group of a single-species of animals that is susceptible to infection, the original virus underperforms the D614G mutant.arrow_forwardMODIFIED ALTERNATIVE RESPONSE: Write RIGHT if the statement is CORRECT.
