What type of microbe is used in a vaccine?
A
it doesn’t really matter
B
a damaged one
C
a weakened or inactivated one
D
a normal one
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Live vaccines use a weakened (or attenuated) form of the germ that causes a disease. Because these vaccines are so similar to the natural infection that they help prevent, they create a strong and long-lasting immune response.

Detailed explanation-2: -Examples of live, attenuated vaccines include measles, mumps, and rubella vaccine (MMR) and varicella (chickenpox) vaccine. Even though they are very effective, not everyone can receive these vaccines. Children with weakened immune systems-for example, those who are undergoing chemotherapy-cannot get live vaccines.

Detailed explanation-3: -Inactivated vaccines for COVID-19 This type of vaccine contains the killed SARS-CoV-2 virus, which is recognised by the immune system to trigger a response without causing COVID-19 illness.
