Answer to Q9/5
The correct answers are MMR, VZV and Oral Rotavirus Vaccine.
You should seek further advice if you are considering administering the following vaccines: MMR, VZV, Oral Rotavirus vaccine, as they are all live-attenuated vaccines.
Answer to Q9/6
The correct response is the influenza vaccine. Note that egg allergy is no longer a contraindication to vaccination with MMR, however closer observation post-vaccination may be warranted. For information on egg allergy and MMR vaccine, refer to the 2nd last dot point of Section 3.11: Measles: Precautions on page 207 of the Handbook
