1 Inactivated whole-cell (killed antigen) vaccines Inactivated vaccines are made from microorganisms (viruses, bacteria, other) that have been killed through physical or chemical processes. These killed organisms cannot cause disease. Immune response Inactivated whole-cell vaccines may not always induce an immune response and the response may not be long lived. Several doses of inactivated whole-cell vaccines may be required to evoke a sufficient immune response. Safety and stability Inactivated whole-cell vaccines have no risk of inducing the disease they are given against as they do not contain live components. They are considered more stable than LAV vaccines. The table lists the rare, more severe of these vaccines. Note the frequency of the adverse reactions to get an idea of how low or high the possibility of an adverse event is. Also read the s to understand additional context details on the adverse events.
2 Adverse reactions associated with inactivated whole-cell vaccines Vaccine Pertussis (wp) 30 Rare, more severe Prolonged crying and seizures Seizure Uncontrolled electrical activity in the brain, resulting in convulsion, physical signs, thought disturbances, or a combination of symptoms. are uncommon Hypotonic, hyporesponsive episodes (HHE) are rare less than 1% less than % Minor adverse reactions such as local Local (or localized)restricted or limited to a specific body part or region. redness and swelling, fever and agitation are very common with wp vaccines (10 50%). Although mild with no lasting effect, these reactions have affected the acceptance of wp vaccine Whole cell pertussis (wp) vaccinea preparation of inactivated whole cell pertussis bacterium, used to immunize against pertussis. in some populations. All wp (or DTwP

Adjuvants are often included in vaccines to enhance the recipient's immune response to a supplied antigen, while keeping the injected foreign material to a minimum. and in some cases thiomersal Thiomers althiomersal is a mercury-containing preservative that has been used in some vaccines and other products since the 1930's. While there
4 Vaccine Rare, more severe is no evidence that the low concentrations of thimerosal in vaccines have caused any harm other than minor reactions like redness or swelling at the injection site, in July 1999 the US Public Health Service, the American Academy of Pediatrics, and vaccine manufacturers agreed that thimerosal should be reduced or eliminated from vaccines as a precautionary measure. Today, all routinely recommended childhood vaccines manufactured for the US market contain either no thimerosal or only trace amounts. as preservative. Inactivated polio vaccine (IPV) 29 None known Many high-income countries have switched from OPV to IPV, as IPV is considered safer. IPV is more expensive than OPV and an injectable vaccine. Many lower- and middleincome countries use OPV.
5 Powered by TCPDF ( Question Which of the following statements is incorrect? A. Inactivated whole-cell vaccines contain "killed" pathogens. B. Inactivated whole-cell vaccines can be considered safer than live vaccines, particularly when used in vulnerable groups (immunocompromised persons). C. Inactivated whole-cell vaccines can be considered more effective compared to live vaccines. D. Inactivated whole-cell vaccines should not be seen as ineffective the immunization schedule foresees repeated doses to ensure adequate immune responses in patients. Answer Answer C is incorrect. Inactivated vaccines can be considered safer than live vaccines, which, however, comes with a reduced effectiveness of the vaccine. Inactivated vaccines should not be seen as ineffective the immunization schedule foresees repeated doses to ensure adequate immune responses in patients. Live vaccines on the other hand should not be seen as unsafe their production is usually done with meticulous quality checks ensuring their safety. It is rather important to have well trained health staff screening patients for counter indications to the vaccines. next
