Question

Patty and tina were exposed to the mumps at school. neither patty nor tina has ever had the mumps before, but several years ago tina was given the mumps vaccine, which was made from the killed virus. patty's mother had mumps as a child, and she is worried that patty and her 2-month-old baby sister, who is breast-feeding, will get the mumps. who is most likely to get the mumps and why?

Answer 1

Patty is more susceptible to the mumps.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the scenerio, patty was exposed to the mumps from Tina unlike the baby who was not exposed to the mumps. on the other hand, the child has passive immunity passed unto him by the mother through the breast milk. thus, protecting the child temporarily from the virus.

Answer 2

I think would be most susceptible to have mumps is the Patty.
If we review the conditions: Tina had mumps vaccine; her mother had mumps before; baby sister was breastfed, which is not a protection for mumps, and Patty wasn't vaccinated but was the one who had contact with the person who has mumps. Patty was the most vulnerable.

The main reasons for mumps are through situations where saliva was able to be passed. Such situations were sneezing, coughing, food sharing, plate use, kissing, and touching the nose or mouth of people with mumps.
