Nurse reviewing CDC's immunization recommendations with parents of adolescent. Which should nurse include in this discussion?
Correct answer
B, D, E
Rationale
The correct answers are B (varicella), D (HPV), and E (seasonal influenza) because these are recommended immunizations for adolescents by the CDC. Varicella vaccine protects against chickenpox, HPV vaccine prevents certain types of cancers, and seasonal influenza vaccine helps prevent the flu. Rotavirus (A) is typically given to infants, not adolescents. Herpes zoster (C) is recommended for older adults, not adolescents.
