Question 1 of 5
A nurse is preparing to administer the varicella vaccine to a group of clients. The nurse should identify which of the following clients as having a contraindication for receiving this immunization?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C. Clients with AIDS have compromised immune systems, making them more susceptible to adverse effects of the varicella vaccine. It is contraindicated in immunocompromised individuals due to the risk of disseminated vaccine-related disease.
Choice A is incorrect because receiving the HPV vaccine does not affect the varicella vaccine.
Choice B is incorrect as older adults in long-term care facilities are not contraindicated for the varicella vaccine.
Choice D is incorrect because while the varicella vaccine is grown in cells derived from eggs, the risk of an allergic reaction is low, and precautions can be taken.
