What is the function of innate immune response?

It provides more durable immunity; boosters may be required, though less frequently than would otherwise be necessary
It is safer than other kinds of vaccines
It does not cause any severe side effects or complications
Which is not true about subunit vaccines?
They can be designed using molecular biology technique
They are less harmful than live attenuated vaccine
They provide lifetime protection

Because adaptive immunity takes days to weeks to initiate a response and sometimes it is too late
Because some people are immune deficient or have weak immune systems
