Example sentences for: unvaccinated
How can you use “unvaccinated” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
In virtual experiments, we then challenged each (virtual) animal once with a challenge dose of one ID 50 , the dose at which on average 50% of the unvaccinated animals become infected after a single challenge.
In this alternative design, the efficacy of a vaccine can be estimated by measuring the difference in the number of challenges needed to infect vaccinated versus unvaccinated hosts (see Figure 1B).
In most animal studies that seek to test the efficacy of a given preventive intervention, very high challenge doses are used, typically of approximately 10–100 times the infectious dose at which 50% of the animals become infected ( ID 50 ). The motivation for using such high challenge doses is mostly practical: the experimenter wants to ascertain infection success in unvaccinated/untreated animals, which can then be compared to the hopefully lower infection success in vaccinated/treated animals.
Lastly, we assumed that the vaccine was “leaky” [29,30], i.e., that the susceptibility of vaccinated animals was by a constant factor lower than the susceptibility of the unvaccinated control animals.
The most straight-forward design would involve a large number of hosts, some vaccinated and some unvaccinated.
