Cevap
The statements indicating a contraindication for the live attenuated influenza vaccine (LAIV) are being pregnant and taking immunosuppressant medications.
Live attenuated vaccines, such as the nasal spray influenza vaccine (LAIV), are strictly contraindicated for clients who are pregnant or immunocompromised. These individuals have weakened immune systems or altered immune responses, placing them at high risk for developing a severe infection from the live virus strain present in the vaccine.
