LIVE VIRUS VACCINES
Vaccines are made using several different processes. They may contain live viruses that have been attenuated (weakened
or altered); inactivated or killed organisms or viruses; inactivated toxins (for bacterial diseases where toxins generated by the
bacteria, and not the bacteria themselves, cause illness); or merely segments of the pathogen (this includes both subunit and
conjugate vaccines). People getting live virus vaccines can and do spread the disease for up to several weeks after receiving
the innoculant. Live virus vaccines include:
Influenza (nasal spray)
Measles, mumps, rubella (MMR combined vaccine)
Rotavirus
Varicella (chickenpox)
