Every year, the viral strains included in vaccinations for the flu are slightly different, based on the prevalence of the strains present the previous year. Which of the following statements is TRUE regarding the vaccinations and the treatment of viral infections like the flu?
A. | When someone who is vaccinated encounters the virus they were vaccinated for, antigens are produced triggering destruction of the virus. | |
B. | Antibodies are built up in response to viral antigens, making those with vaccines more susceptible to viral infection. | |
C. | Viruses mutate quickly due to overuse of antibiotics. | |
D. | Vaccinations involve introducing an antigen of a virus into the immune system, which stimulates the production of antibodies. |
