How vaccines prevent infection?

Vaccines do not prevent infection. Vaccines prepare the immune system to fight infection by allowing the immune system to produce antibodies to a specific invading organism, kill it, and remember it in the future. In vaccines, this organism is often weakened or dead. If the invading organism is found by the immune system in the future following immunization, the immune system remembers it and produces the specific antibodies needed to kill it quickly.


Why are vaccines given?

Vaccines are given because they keep you from getting sick. They work by preparing your immune system to fight bacteria by themselves. A dead, or weak, strain of the bacteria is given to the body. Your immune system can then produce anti bodies to kill them. Your system can then remember how it did it. If you should get a virrulent strain in future, an effecient attack can then be launched automatically.

Do vaccines tear down the immune system?

No, there is no proof of that. It is thought that vaccines are good for the function of the immune system because they give it "exercise"; or at least they are not bad for the immune system. Some believe that if the immune system isn't triggered to respond to an antigen periodically, it will not function as well when a real antigen invades the body, in sort of a "use it or lose it" way. That may not actually happen in the immune system, but many body systems and parts do work that way.

Why do we develop disease even after getting vaccines?

Vaccines have a minuscule amount of the disease, so your immune system can easily destroy it and then retain in the immune systems memory the best way to destroy it. That is how vaccines work. However if you have an immune deficiency disorder, or a weak immune system, the disease inside the vaccine has a tiny chance of surviving and reproducing causing the disease to infect you.
