Question 1 of 5
A nurse is reinforcing teaching about the varicella vaccine with the guardian of a toddler. Which of the following statements should the nurse include in the teaching?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B because children with leukemia have weakened immune systems and may not respond well to the varicella vaccine, making it less effective for them. Giving the vaccine to a child with leukemia could potentially lead to serious complications.
A: Giving aspirin post-vaccine can increase the risk of Reye's syndrome, so it should be avoided.
C: The varicella vaccine does not contain egg proteins, so it is safe for children with egg allergies.
D: The first dose of the varicella vaccine is typically given between 12-15 months, not after the child is 3 years old.
