Why do some people have side effects from a vaccine but others do not?

People may have different responses to vaccines due to variations in their immune systems, genetic makeup, or underlying health conditions. Additionally, factors such as age, gender, and previous exposure to similar antigens can also influence how individuals respond to vaccines. It is normal for people to have varying reactions to vaccines, as they provoke the immune system in different ways.


What is the most common injury from influenza?

Typically no injuries are accommodated with the flu. Some people can die if their immune system is substantially weak and they don't receive the proper medical attention. Usually a headache is the first symptom with a sharply rising temperature then the cough and runny nose kicks in.


How do you get bubble boy syndrome?

The bubble boy syndrome or Severe Combine Immune Deficiency (SCID), is an autosomal recessive disorder. That means you'll get it if you have two copies of a defective gene. Usually that means, both parent have 1 copy of that gene, but the parents don't suffer from SCID because its a recessive gene disorder, you need 2 copies to have SCID. The mutation in the gene means that a particular enzyme (Adenosine Deaminase- ADA) is not produced. Without ADA, adnosine within the T and B cells (which are respondisble for our immune system) cannot be digested. In the presence of undigested adenosine, the immune cells cannot survive and die. Therefore, people who suffer from the bubble boy syndrome have no immunity as their body cannot produce healthy immune cells.


How does the vaccine that contains cowpox virus prevent smallpox?

the cow pox and smallpox are the same thing. they give the body a tiny bit of the virus and let the body kill it immediately. the body gets so little of the virus that it can easily kill it, then it will become immune. the only thing is the side affects of this vaccine--stomach ache, nausea, pain, headache, and the seldom fate of death. in the early 1970's, the people got rid of most fatal side affects and it is now given to infants. now smallpox (cow pox) is virtually impossible to get the virus.


What are the most common victims of clostridium botulinum?

The most common victims of Clostridium botulinum are infants and young children, as they have immature immune systems and are more susceptible to the toxin produced by the bacteria. Additionally, individuals with compromised immune systems, elderly people, and individuals who consume improperly processed foods are also at higher risk of contracting botulism from Clostridium botulinum.

Should a doctor charge to administer a vaccine and the cost of the vaccine?

My opinion is that no, doctors should not charge to administer a vaccine and the cost of the vaccine. If this was the case, not so many people would go to get shots to keep them immune from disease. If less people get their shots, then the whole population with become less healthy. #doesthishelpany #ihopeso #sorryifitdoesnot


Are immune compromised people more susceptible to Valley Fever?

Yes. People with immune compromised systems are more susceptible to Valley fever. For example, it is found more commonly in prisons because many prisoners have immuno-suppression due to HIV. Valley Fever is a fungal infection which is known in medical terms as Coccidioidomycosis. It is caused by the fungus Coccidioides.

Why are adults immune to chickenpox?

Do all vaccinations work?

Not all vaccinations work on all people, but most vaccinations work on most people, to prevent diseases that spread rapidly or are especially fatal or debilitating infections. Because of vaccination use, we have virtually eliminated some infective diseases in the places where people use vaccines to prevent them (small pox, polio, etc.). The risk:benefit analysis of a vaccine, performed through studies and clinical trials before release for use by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the US, is done with each new vaccine. They are proven safe and effective, meaning that they save many more lives than they produce adverse effects and they work on most people. There are people who are unable to take vaccinations due to allergy or other adverse reactions and there are those who are unable to take them because they have a compromised immune system, which can not react as it should to the vaccine. This happens in people with an immune system disease, or when they are taking medications that reduce the effects of the immune system (as in transplants to prevent rejection and some autoimmune diseases).


What types of people got the plague?

Oftentimes it was the poor because of their unhygienic living conditions and compromised immune systems, but the Plague did not discriminate. It took the lives of people from all walks of life.


Are spores dangerous?

Spores themselves are not usually dangerous. However, some spores can produce toxins or cause allergic reactions in some individuals. It's important to be cautious around spores from certain molds or fungi, especially for people with respiratory conditions or compromised immune systems.


What kind of infections do people with compromised immune systems get?

People with comprimised immune systems are susceptible to all the infections commonly found in the population. They are also able to develop "opportunistic infections." There are a variety of opportunistic infections. A few include thrush, kaposi's sarcoma, pneumocystis pneumonia and cytomegalovirus.


Why has TB become a major cause of death with people who have HIV?

The reason why TB has become a major cause of death with people who have HIV is because such people already have a compromised immune system, making their body weaker and unable to fight off the disease.
