Attenuated
Attenuated means that a procedure has been used to weaken an agent of disease, such as a virus or bacterium. A vaccine against a viral or bacterial disease can be made from an attenuated, or weakened, strain of the virus or bacterium. As a result, the virus or bacterium is able to stimulate an immune response to protect the body against an illness.
