Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 3
Rationale: Swimming helps to exercise all of the extremities without putting undue stress on joints. Softball, football, and basketball could exacerbate joint discomfort.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 3
Rationale: A child with an immune disorder should not be immunized with a live varicella vaccine because of the risk of contracting the disease. DTaP, HIB, and hepatitis B vaccinations are not live vaccines and should be given on schedule.
