METHOD TO DECREASE THE RISK OF A VACCINE-INDUCED CHRONIC IMMUNE MEDIATED DISORDER IN HUMANS WITH A FAMILY HISTORY OF THE DISORDER

摘要

A method of safer immunization against infectious diseases by considering the potential recipients family history or other risk factors for a chronic immune mediated disorders, especially type 1 diabetes prior to immunizing the recipient. The method may include screening potential recipients of a vaccine and selectively avoiding immunizing or administering a lower risk immunization schedule to those at increased risk for the chronic immune mediated disorder. The resulting method will lower the risk of the recipient in developing the immune mediated disorder.
