20
Q

T or F? Koplik spots follows the measles rash by 1–2

days.

A

F, it precedes it

21
Q

What path can occur years later after Measles infection?

A

subacute sclerosing panencephalitis,

22
Q

H. influenza virus contain 2 types of antigens called? .

A

hemagglutinin

neuraminidase

23
Q

H. influenza virus antigens: hemagglutinin promotes —- and

neuraminidase promotes —- .

A

viral entry

progeny virion release

24
Q

How does H. influenza v. cause a drift?

A

An antigenic drift causes changes based on random mutation in hemagglutinin or neuraminidase genes.

25
How does H. influenza v. cause pandemics?
Reassorts it's viral genome segments, such as when segments of human flu A virus reassort with swine flu A virus.
26
which 2 viral infections can predispose pt to superinfections?
H. influenza v., HBV (p166)
27
A “blueberry muffin” appearance with congenital rubella findings is indicative of?
extramedullary hematopoiesis
28
30 year old male remembers acquiring aseptic meningitis as a child, which might be related to his infertility. what is the causal virus?
``` Mumps virus (maybe do to Orchitis: inflammation of testes), ```
29
Why is H. influenza Live attenuated vaccine administered intranasally?
Because it contains temperature sensitive mutant that replicates in the nose but not in the lung
30
Paramyxoviruses contain --------- , which | causes respiratory epithelial cells to fuse and form multinucleated cells.
surface F (fusion) protein
31
Pt who is unable to swallow his saliva do to hydrophobia might have what viral infection?
Rabies virus
32
Negri bodies are commonly found in 2 places:
Purkinje cells of cerebellum and in hippocampal neurons
33

HBV
36
T or F? Pt infected with rabies start showing symptoms in less than a week.
Rabies has long incubation period (weeks to | months) before symptom onset.
