Immunization involves introducing dead/weakened germs into your body. The body can 'fight' this infection easily. Later, if you come across the same germ, the memory cells in your immune system recognize them and it produces antibodies faster than it would have if it were un-immunized.

∙ 12y agoWhenever a foreign particle that is an antigen(pathogen) enters our body our immune system recognize and kill the antigen.Usually our immune system takes time to recognize and kill the antigen,if the antigen is more strong within that time it can collapse the system and cause disease.During immunization we will be administered with a mild antigen which cannot cause disease but it can trigger the immune system hence the immune system can kill the antigen(pathogen) efficiently when its administered second time before causing the disease
