Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Administering a killed virus vaccine or a toxoid vaccine allows a child to acquire active immunity against a disease. A killed virus vaccine contains viruses that have been inactivated, but the immune system still recognizes the virus and produces a response. A toxoid vaccine contains a bacterial toxin that has been chemically modified to no longer cause illness but still produces an immune response against the original toxin. Administering immunoglobulins, antibiotics or antiviral therapy are not methods to acquire active immunity against a disease.
