16
Q

Adaptive immunity defenses

A

Antibodies locate antigens (non-self antibodies) and stimulate immune response to kill specific antigen

17
Q

Antibodies versus antigen receptors

A

Same protein, antigen receptors are on cell membrane of white blood cells and remain with cell that produced, antibodies are secreted and can circulate body

18
Q

What is a vaccine

A

Introduces antigens from a pathogen so body can get a primary immune response

19
Q

R- naught/r⁰

A

Average of how many people one sick person affects ex one sick person gets three others sick, r³

20
Q

Percent reduction of disease in vaccinated population when compared to unvaccinated population

A

Vaccine efficacy

21
Q

Risk formula

A

Infected people/total people

22
Q

Vaccine efficacy formula

A

Unvaccinated risk - vaccinated risk/unvaccinated risk

23
Q

Relationship between environment host and agent

A

Epidemiological triangle

24
Q

Infant immune systems can’t handle so many vaccines in a short period of time

A

Infants are exposed to many germs everyday, vaccines only take up small fraction of babies immune response

25
Q

Infection rates are low so vaccines aren’t needed

A

Community will disappear if too many people do this, everyone who is not vaccinated gives the disease more risk of spreading

26
Q

Vaccines cause autism

A

No, Dr falsely linked MMR vaccine to autism, CDC says antigens in vaccines were the same between autistic and non autistic kids

27
Q

Vaccines contain unsafe toxins

A

Do not contain toxic ingredients but have metals naturally found in bodies, only toxic if given a very large dose

28
Q

Hygine and sanitation are responsible for infection

A

Hygiene and sanitation decrease spread of disease, vaccines stimulate the immune system while sanitation prevents spread of infection
