âThe Americans continues be one of the best shows on television,â Eric Schrier, President of Original Programming for FX Networks, said in a statement.
A attenuated vaccine is a vaccine created by reducing the virulence of a pathogen, but still keeping it viable (or live). Attenuation takes an infectious agent and alters it so that it becomes harmless or less virulent. These vaccines contrast to those produced by killing the virus (inactivated vaccine).xamples of live (example attenuated) vaccines include: 1  Viral: measles vaccine, mumps vaccine, rubella vaccine, Live attenuated influenza vaccine (the seasonal flu nasal spray and the 2009 H1N1 flu nasal spray), chicken pox vaccine, oral polio vaccine (Sabin), rotavirus vaccine, and yellow fever vaccine.
In some cases, these vaccines use epitopesâthe very specific parts of the antigen that antibodies or T cells recognize and bind to. Because subunit vaccines contain only the essential antigens and not all the other molecules that make up the microbe, the chances of adverse reactions to the vaccine are lower.
