Chapter 45, Problem 14TYU
PREDICT A playmate in kindergarten exposes John and Jack to measles. John has been immunized against measles, but Jack has not received the measles vaccine. How are their immune responses different? Five years later, John and Jack are playing together when Judy, who is coming down with measles, sneezes on both of them. Is it probable that either John or Jack will become ill with measles?

Vaccines are used to train our adaptive immune system. With live-attenuated vaccines, a weakened form of the
pathogen is injected. Describe the steps of an adaptive immune response to this type of vaccine (1 sentence per step).
Explain how the immune system of a person who received the vaccine would respond to a later exposure to the
pathogen (1-2 sentences).
A child was bitten by a dog suspected to have contracted rabies. As a response by the hospital emergency department, they administered immunoprophylaxis that contain Immunoglobulins against the Rabies virus. What immunity does this confer to the child?

- Rebecca developed measles as a young child. As a teenager, she is re-exposed to the measles virus during an outbreak at her high school. What will most likely prevent Rebecca from experiencing any signs or symptoms of measles? As a result of her childhood exposure, her immune system can perform enhanced inflammatory response. As a result of her childhood exposure, her immune system can perform enhanced phagocytosis of virus-infected host cells. She has memory innate immune cells as a result of her childhood exposure. They would be primed to activate rapidly upon subsequent exposure to the same virus during the secondary immune response. She has memory B cells as a result of her childhood exposure.
