Which vaccine type contains live attenuated pathogens?
Correct Answer: Live attenuated vaccines
- Step 1: Understand what a vaccine is. A vaccine helps your body learn to fight off diseases.
- Step 2: Learn about different types of vaccines. There are several types, including live attenuated, inactivated, and subunit vaccines.
- Step 3: Focus on live attenuated vaccines. These vaccines use a weakened version of the germ that causes the disease.
- Step 4: Know that 'live' means the germ is still alive, but 'attenuated' means it is weakened so it cannot cause disease.
- Step 5: Realize that because the germ is alive (but weakened), it can still trigger your immune system to respond and build protection.
