<u>Correct Option:</u>
Tetanus, hepatitis B, influenza, and pneumococcal vaccines are required to comply with the recommended immunization schedule for a client with HIV.
<u>Option: D</u>
<u>Explanation:</u>
- Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is responsible for killing the WBC (white blood cells) that battle infection, as this virus destroys the immune system, which can follow certain cancers.
- While AIDS (acquired immune deficiency syndrome) is the last stage of HIV infection.
- In contrast to influenza vaccine delivery that avoids both viral and bacterial pneumonia, Streptococcus pneumoniae vaccination is suggested. The risk of invasive pneumococcal illness is strong for HIV-infected people.
- HIV patients obviously recover from influenza vaccination, the reaction of antibodies to seasonal flu vaccination is usually lower than among HIV-uninfected people.
