Question 1 of 5
A nurse is assessing a client for allergies prior to administering the influenza vaccine. The nurse should identify that an allergy to which of the following foods is a contraindication to receiving this vaccine?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Egg. The influenza vaccine is typically produced using egg-based technology, so individuals with a severe allergy to eggs should not receive the vaccine due to the risk of an allergic reaction. This is a contraindication because the vaccine could trigger a severe allergic response in those with egg allergies. Shellfish, gelatin, and milk allergies are not contraindications for receiving the influenza vaccine as they are not components of the vaccine formulation. In summary, an allergy to eggs is a contraindication to receiving the influenza vaccine due to the risk of a severe allergic reaction, while allergies to shellfish, gelatin, and milk are not relevant in this context.
