Immunology questions (Round 1)

in science •  7 years ago 

In what ways are immunity and vaccination closely related?

What characteristic of rabies infection allows for the vaccination to be efficacious even though the person has already been infected? How was the rabies vaccine prepared?

No vaccine is 100% effective, so how was smallpox eradicated?

In what ways does the immune system provide benefits beyond protection against infectious diseases?

The relative importance of humoral and cellular immunity was a heated debate. Who were the major proponents of each immunological branch? What was the supporting evidence for each side? Who won the argument?

Compare and contrast selective theory with instructional theory. How did the clonal selection theory extend upon the selective theory?
