You are referring to a vaccination. Vaccinations work in one of two ways; either a very low active dose of the disease is injected or an inactive, killed variety is injected.
In either case, these injections stimulate the body to make antibodies against the pathogen (virus or bacteria) so if it enters the body later, there is an 'army' of antibodies already armed and waiting for it, and the pathogen is quickly conquered before the person ever becomes ill.
Many of these injections last over a lifetime; others may require booster injections later. An example of this is tetanus; a single tetanus shot is only good for about ten years. However, once you are inoculated against measles or have had the measles, you will never get this disease again. It depends on the pathogen in question.

To stop you from getting very serious and sometimes fatal diseases. When you have an injection part of the disease ( which is dead ) will get injected into you by a needle. Your body will then fight this disease off, therefore if the disease which i now alive is to enter your body, your body will recognise it and will be able to fight it off easily!
