Solution

The correct option is B Diphtheria, Pertussis and Tetanus
DPT is a class of combination vaccines which provides protection against three infectious diseases in humans i.e., diphtheria, pertussis (whooping cough), and tetanus. The components of the vaccine include diphtheria and tetanus toxoids and kill whole cells of the bacterium that causes pertussis. The usual course of childhood immunization in the USA is five doses between 2 months and 15 years.
So, the correct answer is 'Diptheria, Pertussis and Tetanus'.
