Question

what is your understanding of the live, attenuated vaccine regimens and the myths that may prevent widescale uptake of vaccines with proven efficacy at preventing disease?

Answer 1

The live, attenuated vaccine regimens as vaccines that of a pathogen that is either nonpathogenic relatives of the target pathogen, for example, the virus (like Jenner's cowpox) or the virulent strains are attenuated by passage in animals and/or cell cultures.

The myths that may prevent wide-scale uptake of vaccines with proven efficacy at preventing disease include;

‘Vaccines may be unsafe

‘Vaccines may not adequately tested

‘Vaccines may contain toxic additives

‘Vaccines may be contaminated with foreign viruses

Vaccines are cultured on cell lines from aborted fetuses
