Nurse reviewing CDC's immunization recommendations with parents of 2 preschoolers. Which recommendations should nurse include in this discussion? (Select all that apply.)
Correct answer
B,C,E
Rationale
The correct recommendations to include are Varicella (B), Polio (C), and Seasonal influenza (E). Varicella vaccination prevents chickenpox, a common childhood illness. Polio vaccination is crucial to prevent the spread of polio, a highly contagious disease that can cause paralysis. Seasonal influenza vaccination is recommended to protect against the flu, which can be severe in young children. Haemophilus influenzae type b (A) is typically given in infancy, not preschool years. Hepatitis A (D) is recommended for older children and high-risk groups, not necessarily preschoolers.
