Do vaccines decrease immunity to the common cold?
No
Which are the diseases for which vaccines are not discovered?
Currently, all vaccines on the market today only exist for diseases caused by viruses- though not all diseases caused by viruses have a corresponding vaccine. Notably, the common cold (rhinoviruses) and AIDS (HIV) have no vaccines.
If canine vaccines are not cold can they still be given and will they still protect against illnesses?
If the vaccines are supposed to be kept refrigerated until use, they are worthless if they are no longer cold.
Can viruses be cured by vaccines?
No. Vaccinations are for preventing infectious diseases, not treating or curing them.
Are Bendaroos avalible in stores?
Are bendaroos avalible in stores?
What are the most common vaccines used to protect against infections for splenectomies?
The most common vaccines used are Pneumovax or Pnu-Imune 23 (against pneumococcal infections) and Menomune-A/C/Y/W-135 (against meningococcal infections).
What does vaccine and pathogenic have in common?
Vaccines are for preventing infections. Infections are pathogenic (caused by germs). Vaccines help your body prepare to fight specific pathogens, e.g., bacteria and viruses.
Is cold a proper or a common noun?
Cold is a common noun.
When are you avalible?
anytime
What are the risks of getting mmr?
Common risks associated with vaccines such as swelling, fever and irritation. But NOT AUTISM.
Why the doctor wouldn't give a vaccine if you had cold caused by a virus?
Having a cold without a fever is not a reason to avoid giving a vaccine. Vaccines, however, do not prevent or treat colds.
What research is being done for colds?
One of the most promising current studies involves finding a universal vaccine for influenza that will perhaps finally lead to development of vaccines for the common cold. There are currently no vaccines to prevent infections with the cold viruses. There are over 200 different types of cold viruses that cause a cold. Each of those can mutate over and over and become unable to be prevented by vaccines by making little constant changes to the proteins on the capsid (coat) of the virion (virus particle).When the influenza virus mutates to change the protein on the capsid, the prior vaccines made will be ineffective if the change is significant enough. Flu viruses mutate often and quickly. Cold viruses mutate even more rapidly and often make big changes. This keeps us from being able to develop cold vaccines since we would need one for nearly every newly mutated cold virus and vaccines can not be developed quickly enough before the virus will have mutated again.The new promising approach under study (with human trials already in process) is being first attempted with flu vaccines. Instead of forcing our immune systems to build antibodies against the flu after each of these changes and having to develop and introduce new vaccines each time, the new vaccine will work on the stem of the protein instead of on the capsid to prevent infections. The stem does not change when the capsids do. So, if a vaccine can be developed to work on the stems instead of on the capsid, a new vaccine would not be needed for every different virus or mutation.If it works for flu with successful human trials, the next steps will be to do the same for the common cold and other viruses that mutate this way. It is predicted that a "universal vaccine" for influenza will be available and on the market in maybe around 10 years. It is a slow process to take a concept to production and distribution of a new medicine, but there is much promise for this approach.
