问题 Allergy Reports Prompt Vaccine Recall
KUALA LUMPUR - The Health Department recalled 5,000 doses of tetanus vaccine after receiving several reports about its side effects on patients.
According to the department, 30 patients from around the capital suffered from rashes last week after receiving the shots at state hospitals, indicating a high rate of allergic reactions to the medicine. Health Secretary Rajah Hashmid immediately recalled the vaccines and ordered public hospitals to stop using them.
Manufactured by Indian pharmaceutical company Alhira, the tetanus vaccines were imported by the government last month along with other medicines. An investigation into the patients’ cases is underway.
Why did Rajah Hashmid suspend use of the vaccines?

选项 A、They had passed an expiration date.
B、They cause an adverse physical response.
C、They were exposed to toxic materials.
D、They were not approved by the Health Deparment.

答案B

解析 本题是问Rajah Hashmid为何(Why)暂停使用疫苗,应定位至原文中提及题目核心语句Rajah Hashmid suspend use of vaccines相关内容的部分。原文中提到“30 patients…indicating a high rate of allergic reactions to the medicine.Health Secretary Rajah Hashmid…public hospitals to stop using them.”,即30名患者在接受了疫苗注射后出现了高概率的药物过敏反应,因此卫生部部长拉贾·哈什米德指示公立医院停止使用该疫苗。因此(B)They cause an adverse physical response.为正确答案。
