Often times, a vaccine is the inert form of the virus, or bacteria, meaning that it cannot replicate, or cause any harm. This "shell" is then injected into your body, and your white blood cells fight it off. They then remember how to fight it off, the next time it shows up

What makes every pathogen unique?
every pathogen is different, the main and only difference is the antigen which live upon it and often release toxins which can also harm the body as well as the actual infection it is carrying. What makes them different are it's Antigens.:)
Sore throat and fever and swollen glands and vomiting What is the disease?

What is the cpt code for influenza vaccine intramuscular?
One code is 90471. There is a 2nd code for the actual influenza vaccine, but we need to know the age of the patient.
How many people are still terrified of the swine flu?
An actual count would be impossible. But there is much less fear of the infection now that a vaccine has been developed with widespread use, education about prevention has been ongoing, and the pandemic spread is over.
When antibodies initiate complement fixations the actual mechanism of pathogen cell death is cell lysis caused by a?

How do vaccines make your life better?
Hello there! Vaccines are a preventative measure to make the person's immune system get familiar with the pathogen and learn how to completely neutralise them. Additionally, your immune system will develop a memory of how to beat them up effortlessly. Sometimes the person may not have symptoms during an actual infection, or they will just get a mild infection that is tolerable and doesn't require hospitalisation. Being vaccinated protects the immunocompromised and other people who did not get the vaccine. In that way, the pathogen gets a very slim chance to even replicate and mutate into some bad strain. That's how herd immunity can make terrible disease die out like the smallpox virus. These are the benefits of getting vaccinated and one should not be scared of getting one. If uncertain due to health issues or any other legit reason, it is best to consult a professional doctor for proper advice. Hope this response was helpful to you! 😃
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.
What is the common name for Ebola virus?

How did Edward Jenner discover the smallpox?
He did not discover much about the actual disease, but he came up with the vaccine. the first EVER vaccine.
What would happen if an individual receives a vaccination containing a weakened pathogen?
Sometimes they will develop mild flu like symptoms and have a low grade fever. With the weakened your body will recognize the pathogen and develop antibodies against it, so your reaction would be milder then contracting the actual illness.
What does Onychomycosis infect?
The actual infection is of the bed of the nail and of the plate under the surface of the nail
