BMS 602 Vaccines Exam Questions and
Answers 100% Solved | Graded A+
Immunization - ✔✔the process by which a person or animals becomes
protected against a disease
- Vaccination or inoculation
Vaccination/inoculation - ✔✔injection of a killed or weakened infectious
microorganism or piece of infectious microorganism in order to prevent
disease (exposing an individual to produce memory B-cells)
Vaccine - ✔✔a product that produces immunity therefore protecting the
body from the disease
Vaccines can be administered by? - ✔✔Admistered through needle
injections, orally, or by aerosol
Historical perspective of immunization: 1875-1910 - ✔✔Dawn of the
immunological science
Historical perspective of immunization: 1910-30 - ✔✔early bacterial
vaccines, toxins and toxoids

Historical perspective of immunization: 1930-50 - ✔✔early viral vaccines;
yellow fever and influenza
Herd immunity - ✔✔Immunization of a population stops the spread of an
infectious agent by reducing the number of infectious hosts
Why is herd immunization important? - ✔✔1. Important because some
individuals cannot be vaccinated
2. Diseases (ex. Polio and small pox) have been largely eliminated due to
comprehensive worldwide immunization programs
Passive immunization - ✔✔the injection of purified or antibody-containing
serum to provide rapid, temporary protection or treatment (recognizes
specific pathogen or toxin in the body)
Active immunization - ✔✔when an immune response is triggered because
of a challenge with an immunogen (triggers an individual immune to
produce its antibodies)
What does active immunization allow? - ✔✔1. Exposure to an infectious
agent or its antigens
2. Exposure to the vaccine
3. LONG-lasting
What are the most successful vaccines? - ✔✔Live, attenuated vaccines
