ADVANCED PATHOPHYSIOLOGY QUIZZES After sexual transmission of HIV, a person can be infected yet seronegative for months. 1 to 2 6 to 14 24 to 36 18 to 20 Antibody appears rather rapidly after infection through blood products, usually within 4 to 7 weeks. After sexual transmission, however, the individual can be infected yet seronegative for 6 to 14 months or, in at least one case, for years. Once they have penetrated the first line of defense, which microorganisms do neutrophils actively attack, engulf, and destroy by phagocytosis? Bacteria Viruses Mycoplasma Fungi Invasion results in direct confrontation with an individual’s primary defense mechanisms against bacteria, which include the complement system, antibodies, and phagocytes, such as neutrophils and macrophages. (See Chapters 6, 7, and 8). Which statement about vaccines is true? Vaccines require booster injections to maintain lifelong protection. Vaccines provide effective protection for all people against viruses, bacteria, and fungal infections. Most bacterial vaccines contain attenuated organisms. Most viral vaccines are made by using dead organisms. In general, vaccine-induced protection does not persist as long as infection-induced immunity, thus booster injections may be necessary to maintain protection throughout life. Cells in may act as a reservoir in which HIV can be relatively protected from antiviral drugs. the thymus gland the central nervous system the lungs bone marrow HIV may persist in regions where the ant
