🦠 Infection During Low Immunity
Let’s understand this in a very simple way.
What happens when immunity becomes weak?
When the body’s defense system is weak:
- Germs can attack easily
- Even normally harmless organisms can cause disease
What is this type of infection called?
✅ Correct Answer: (c) Opportunistic infection
Why is it called opportunistic?
Because the microorganisms take the “opportunity” when immunity is low.
👉 Common in:
- HIV/AIDS patients
- Cancer patients
- Immunocompromised individuals
Why other options are not correct?
- (a) Cross infection → ❌ Spread from one person to another
- (b) Lactogenic infection → ❌ Spread through breast milk
- (d) Nosocomial infection → ❌ Hospital-acquired infection
Simple Exam Trick:
Low immunity → Germs get opportunity → Opportunistic infection
