C

Answer to Question 2

2
1. Incorrect. Because the live attenuated rubella virus is not communicable in breast milk, breastfeeding mothers can be vaccinated.
2. Correct. Woman should understand they must practice contraception for 2 to 3 months after being vaccinated.
3. Incorrect. Rh immune globulin is administered IM; it should never be given to an infant.
4. Incorrect. Rh immune globulin suppresses the immune system and so might thwart the rubella vaccination.
