kid with lymphoma.what immunization not to give
1) MMR+DTP
2) DTP only
3) MMR only
4) not give immunization

  #2

It depends upon the state the kid is... But, no vaccines are given until after 1 year from chemo is completed as ALL-kids do not mound the immune response...
Hope I am correct

I think the answer is`MMR, since pt. is immunocompromised and MMR is a LIVE vaccine.

MMR--->never to immune comp (HIV, Leuk, Rad, Chemo & Steroids), Pregnant, <3ms of Igs & if allergic to egg products, Streptomycin & neomycin

DTaP-->never if after DTaP Vaccine:
1. fever >105F
2. cried for >3hrs
3. seizures, & if encephalitis within 7 days
or if already had Pertussis infec---> remove pertussis component

So Its (3) MMR only
