Rationale 3: This immunization contains live but weakened organisms. These organisms can mutate and reproduce and may cause disease in a weakened immune system.
Rationale 4: An attenuated vaccine is the same as a live virus vaccine.
Rationale 5: Immunoglobulins are the antibodies produced by others against a disease. They do not contain the live or killed virus.
