Answer to Question 1

Answer: 3

1. Natural immunity doesn't occur, because strains of influenza change yearly.
2. The elderly are advised to have yearly influenza immunizations.
3. Reactions to the vaccine can be enhanced in the immunocompromised client.
4. The vaccine is given to stimulate antibody production in case the person is exposed to the virus.

1. The goal for the client with AIDS is that the client has some hope.
2. A loss of 10 pounds indicates that the client is losing weight and has not met goals.
3. A goal would be for the client to have no sores on the body.
4. The AIDS client who has no opportunistic infections has met a goal of care.
