Will the smallpox vaccine work if it is received 2 days after infected?
-
Yes
-
No
Correct Answer
A. YesExplanation
The smallpox vaccine works by stimulating the immune system to produce antibodies that can fight the virus. If the vaccine is received 2 days after being infected, it is still possible for it to be effective. However, the effectiveness of the vaccine decreases the longer the virus has been in the body, as it takes time for the immune response to develop. Therefore, receiving the vaccine as soon as possible after infection is ideal for maximum effectiveness.Rate this question:
