Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

BCG vaccine is a live attenuated strain of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, which is used to promote immunity against tuberculosis. However, it can sometimes cause a false positive reaction in tuberculin skin tests and interferon-gamma release assays, which are used to diagnose tuberculosis. It does not affect the diagnosis of pneumococcal pneumonia, whooping cough, or diphtheria.
