What did Jonas Salk contribute to the study of genetics?

He proved that a "killed" virus could be successfully used as a vaccine. Other scientists at the time still believed that only a "live" virus injection would give a person immunity. However, using the "live" virus was, according to Salk, more dangerous, and this fact was proven when Dr. Sabin developed the "live" vaccine, the testing of which caused many deaths. Today, vaccines are produced using his "killed" virus methods.

When you get a vaccine can you get the virus?

There are a few circumstances that can create some risk of getting the virus, such as in people whose immune systems aren't working right (e.g., they recently had cancer chemotherapy or HIV or some other immuno-suppressive disorder). See the list of people in the related question below who should not get vaccinated with the types of vaccines that contain a live "attenuated" virus. Attenuated means weakened. When someone has a weak immune system, they may be susceptible to the weakened form of virus in the vaccine. But they would not be able to be sick from getting vaccines that contain "dead" viruses. With the flu vaccines, for example, the shots have dead viruses in them but the nasal mist has live attenuated viruses in it.Sometimes. If the vaccine is a live attenuated (weakened) vaccine, then you get a dose of virions (viral particles/viruses) that are no longer dangerous to humans as they have been weakened so they can not make you sick. Other vaccines (such as Gardasil) are made with Virus-like particles (VLP) and these are just pieces of the virus (such as the envelope) not actually working and replicating viruses so they can not make you sick either.
