Answer to Question 1

Awesome job my friend

Answer to Question 2

Ans: D
Feedback:
Live attenuated vaccines should be administered to clients after 6 to 12 weeks of administration of immune globulin preparation. MMR vaccine, being a live attenuated vaccine, should be administered to the child after 6 to 12 weeks, as the child has received immune globulin for a snake bite. Vaccinations containing live organisms are not administered within 6 to 12 weeks of immune globulin administration because antibodies in the globulin preparation may interfere with the immune response to the vaccination. To obtain an effective immune response to vaccination, the live vaccine has to be administered 14 to 30 days before or 6 to 12 weeks after immune globulin administration.
