A
Correct answer
Explanation
BPL (Beta-Propiolactone) is an inactivating agent historically used to produce rabies vaccines. In older medical literature, 'BPL vaccine' referred specifically to rabies vaccines prepared using BPL inactivation. Malaria (B) is treated with antimalarial drugs, not vaccines; sore throat (C) is usually bacterial/viral infection; TB (D) uses BCG vaccine, not BPL.
