b. Meningococcal polysaccharide
c. Rotavirus
d. Herpes zoster - CORRECT ANSWERS ✅B
Rationale: The meningococcal polysaccharide
immunization is used to prevent infection by
certain groups of meningococcal bacteria. Meningococcal
infection can cause life-threatening
illnesses, such as meningococcal meningitis, which
affects the brain, and meningococcemia,
which affects the blood. Both of these conditions can be
fatal. College freshmen, particularly
those who live in dormitories, are at an increased risk for
meningococcal disease relative to other
persons their age. Therefore, the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention has issued a
recommendation that all incoming college students
receive the meningococcal immunization.
