Vaccines can cause long term immunity or temportary immunity. The vaccine that is injected into the body has particles of a disease, or a less harmful form of a disease so that the body's immune system recognizes it as a possible threat and kills it. Your body's memory cells believe that you already had the sickness, so that when the invader is introduced into your system, the body recognizes it and is more equipped to fight it off (Because it "remembers") and you are therefore, immune.

The type of immunity that results from the immune system being exposed to antigens that provoke an immune response is called adaptive immunity. This immunity develops over time as the body encounters specific pathogens and creates a tailored response, including the production of antibodies and memory cells. It can be acquired naturally through infection or artificially through vaccination. Adaptive immunity is characterized by its ability to remember past infections, providing long-lasting protection.
