Administering vaccines at a county health immunization clinic.
Question 1 of 5
A nurse is administering vaccines at a county health immunization clinic. Which of the following clients should the nurse plan to administer the meningococcal conjugate (MCV4) vaccine?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C - An 11-year-old school-age child. The MCV4 vaccine is typically recommended for children at age 11-12 years old, as this is the age when they are at increased risk of contracting meningococcal disease. This vaccine helps protect against meningococcal bacteria, which can cause serious infections like meningitis. Administering the vaccine at this age ensures optimal protection during adolescence when the risk of exposure is higher due to social interactions.
Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because the MCV4 vaccine is not typically administered at these ages based on the recommended schedule.
