Chapter 30, Problem 4AQ

Discuss the molecular biology of antigenic shift in influenza viruses and comment on the immunological consequences for the host. Why has antigenic shift prevented the production of a single universally effective vaccine for influenza control? Next, compare antigenic shift to antigenic drift. Which causes the greatest antigenic change? Which creates the biggest problems for vaccine developers? Which can lead to pandemic influenza, and why?

The emergence of new cases of polio linked to the oral vaccine had been reported in a number of African and Asian countries, revealing that there are now more children being paralyzed by viruses originating in vaccines than in the wild. Viral contamination of a biological may arise from many factors, from handling to the origin of the materials used in the cell culture. a What could be the reason for the outbreak in those countries? D) The method of producing attenuated “live" vaccines involve passing the disease- tausing virus through a series of cell cultures or animal embryos (typically chick embryos). Explain the procedure in details and cite the reason why the method involve passing a virus through a non-human host?
Every year, the United States and the world suffer a serious outbreak of emerging, re emerging or endemic disease. Using documented and reliable sources on the internet, find information about COVID-19 and its history. Please also list the souces used.   1: Vaccine development What are vaccines and how do they work? What attenuated virus vaccines are, who developed the vaccine (if one exists) and in what year, what strain was within the first vaccine. current vaccines available, and what strains they cover, and what current protocols are for vaccination in the US and in other countries Discuss current US state policies on vaccination requirements. If no vaccine is available, describe any current R&D or clinical trials in effect right now.    2: CDC and outbreak information On the CDC website and other sources to identify: - When widespread vaccination began and when it effectively eradicated the disease here (also discuss what that means) if applicable. 2. Outline past/ present…
1)Describe the key processes involved in vaccine manufacturing.2) Review the literature and identify the key players in the various mutants of the spikeprotein.3) How were the structures of ACE 2 and spike protein solved?4) Why is it easier to target a single mutant versus multiple mutants in the virus?5) There are several coronaviruses in the database, why is the SARS-CoV-2 sodangerous?6) Summarize the key difference in the invasion of cells by:a. HIVb. Adenovirusc. Anthraxd. SARS-CoV-2e. MERS
