Best Answer

When you receive a vaccine, it puts a "dead" version of a virus into your body; it is one that cannot reproduce, but instead causes your body to produce anti-bodies that fight infection. When you come into contact with that virus, you already have anti-bodies to fight the virus in question. In the event that you ALREADY have the virus, do not receive the vaccine. It is not going to properly do its job. So, to give a more direct answer, it doesn't effect reproduction, it simply gives your body a warning that it might show up so that it is prepared.
