Cystic fibroses (CF) is a genetically inherited disease that is caused by a recessive allele and has to be inherited from both parents. The gene can lie dormant in both parents and they can live perfectly healthy lives however as they carry the gene it means there is a risk of it being passed onto the child. One in 25 of us carries the faulty gene that causes it (CF trust , n.d.) not many people are aware that they even carry the gene as it is only able to affect an individual if they have 2 recessive

of vaccination largely depends on type of immune response and the extent of protective antibodies that would neutralize the infectious pathogen in subsequent exposure. BoHV-1 causes several clinical conditions in cattle including rhinotracheitis, vaginitis, balanoposthitis, abortion, conjunctivitis, and enteritis which impact a severe economic loss to dairy industry. When the ΔgE BoHV-1 mutant virus was intended to be used as vaccine one of the major immunological parameters such as virus neutralizing

menstrual periods end permanently, and pregnancy is no longer possible. The decrease in female hormone levels causes the ovaries and uterus to shrink. The tissues of the vagina become thinner, drier, and less elastic (a condition called atrophic vaginitis). In severe cases, these changes can lead to itching, bleeding, pain during intercourse, and a need to urinate immediately (urinary urgency). The breasts become less firm and have a tendency to sag. This makes it difficult to find lumps. The breasts
