How many times will a person get the actual disease if vaccinated?

Ideally a person would never contract a disease that he/she has been vaccinated against. The foundation of vaccination is the idea that you expose a person's immune system to the pathogen that causes a disease so that the immune system will recognize it and kill it off quickly if the person is ever exposed again. In reality, some vaccinations just don't work - there are always a few people that don't respond to the vaccine, or that respond weakly and don't have enough memory cells to fight off the pathogen.


When a person receives a vaccine what does the body do?

The body's immune system uses a system called artificially acquired immunity to train their B-cells to recognize the foreign proteins of a specific pathogen, a bacteria or virus in order to enable the body to fight off the pathogen if the person should ever be exposed to it.

How does injecting an inactive form of pathogen make a person immune?

the inactive form still has the antigens (protein markers) specific to that pathogen on the surface. the immune system develops specific responses to this pathogen when it is encountered after a vaccination. as it is inactive the person does not suffer the effects of this pathogen, but when an active form is encountered later the immune system is quicker to respond due to the fact that it now recognises those antigens.
