-Getting the disease -Getting a vaccination/vaccine

Name the 5 different types of vaccines.

-Inactivated -Subunit -live attenuated -toxoid -conjugated

Name the three vulnerable populations in which vaccines can help protect

-too young to be vaccinated -allergic to ingredients -weakened immune systems

State of NC requires vaccines against _____ different diseases

10

In a new strain of influenza emerged that had some characteristics similar to the 1918 flu strain

2009

Common myth is that vaccination leads to

Autism

These type of white blood cells that make antibodies or proteins shaped to attach to antigens

B cells

Vaccinations not only protect the vaccinated person but also protects the what as a whole?

Community

Developed the small pox vaccine.

Edward Jenner

this type of method is used to manufacture vaccines especially the influenza vaccine

Eggs method

Name the specific vaccines against HPV.

Gardasil and cervavix

This is a sexually transmitted virus that causes genital warts and cervical cancer.

HPV

HPV stands for what disease?

Human Papillona Virus

Who developed the polio vaccine?

Jonas Salk

These type of cells that remain in the body ready to launch an immune attack if a specific disease invades again.

Memory cells

Whooping cough is also known as?

Pertussis

This Tyler of method is used to manufacture vaccines by using plants

Pharming method

This term means; small pieces of DNA which replicate independently inside bacterial cells

Plasmids

Main goal of vaccination is

Preventing disease

These types of vaccines contain only a piece of the disease organism.

Subunit

Name the two different types of blood cells.

T and B cells

These type of white blood cells that attack infected cells

T cells

What is the first line of defense against micro organisms

The skin

Key weapon against influenza pandemics

Vaccinations

Virus surface antigens that are harvested from plants and purified which will activate an immune response with DNA

Virus like proteins

Name one problem with this live and attenuated type of vaccine

Viruses are still "live" and can mutate to a more dangerous form

These are special proteins produced by the body to attack foreign invaders such as pathogens.

antibodies

These are foreign substances, usually proteins or polysaccharides, that cause the body to produce antibodies.

antigens

Another word for weakened is.

attenuated

Large group of microorganisms; They are less complex than eukaryotes, they they usually are unicellular, their DNA is not contained in a nucleus and they do not have membrane bound organelles, such as mitochondria and chloroplasts.

bacteria

This type of method is used to manufacture vaccines where antigens are grown in a large vats of cells

cell culture method

This type of study is comprised of testing a vaccine by vaccinating animals and then trying to infect them.

challenge study

This type of disease helps the immune systems of infants and young children recognize these bacteria by linking toxoids their systems recognize polysaccharide coatings.

conjugate

When more people in a particular population get a disease than typically expected.

epidemic

While some bacteria cause disease, the majority are ____________, many essentials to life.

harmless

This type of immunity is when the vaccinated people protects the unvaccinated people in the community.

herd

This is the process by which the body becomes immune to a disease.

immunization

This type of vaccine is made by using killed disease agents.

inactivated

This type of vaccine is made from a weakened organism.

live attenuated

MMR combination of what three diseases all combined in one vaccine.

measles, mumps, rubella

When a disease outbreak is global or over large areas of the world.

pandemic

This is any disease-causing agent; usually refers to a virus, bacteria, fungi or protozoan parasite.

pathogen

These types of molecules are artificially created by combining DNA from two different sources.

recombinant DNA

This type of vaccine helps the body develop antibodies to toxins released by bacteria rather an antibodies to the bacteria themselves.

toxoid

The introduction into the body of the weakened, killed or piece of a disease-causing agent to prevent disease.

vaccination

What is a transport mechanism?

vector

This is small, infectious agent that only can replicate inside the cells of a living organism. It has a core of DNA or RNA surrounded by a protein coat and is not itself a living cell.

virus

VLPs stand for what type of proteins

virus like proteins
