A healthy 50-year-old mother of three moves to your town from an inner-city area where she received
no regular health care. She has never had any immunizations, will be working as a librarian, and plans
no international travel. History and physical examination do not suggest any underlying chronic
illnesses.
Which of the following immunizations would you recommend for this patient?
❏ A. Measles, mumps, rubella
❏ B. Hepatitis B
❏ C. Tetanus-diphtheria
❏ D. Pneumococcal
❏ D. All of the above

The case-fatality rate is 42%
in individuals older than 50 years. This patient should therefore receive the primary series
of three immunizations with tetanus-diphtheria toxoids. Because she was born before
1957, she is likely to be immune to measles, mumps, and rubella. She does not appear to
fall into one of the high-risk groups for whom hepatitis A, hepatitis B, and pneumococcal
vaccinations are recommended. (Answer: C—Tetanus-diphtheria
