Answer to Question 1

D
The varicella vaccine should be avoided by individuals who are immunocompromised, which includes those infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and those who have a congenital immunodeficiency. The DTaP vaccine, Hib vaccine, and polio injection may be ad-ministered to immunocompromised individuals, because these are not live vaccines.

Answer to Question 2

B
Salicylic acid is readily absorbed through the skin, and systemic toxicity can result. Peeling and drying are not desired effects of salicylic acid. Tinnitus is a symptom of systemic toxicity. Tissue injury is likely in any concentration above 6.
