Hey there!
Let's first familiarise ourselves with the definitions of these 2 words.
Vaccination is the process of injecting an agent, like a weakened virus, to train the immune system to respond when the real infection is happening in the person. This way is safer than letting the person face an actual infection which will most likely lead to death.
Immunisation is when the immune system's response becomes strong after being exposed to a pathogen (non-self) and eventually, the immune response becomes stronger and quicker during the next same infection.
Back to your question- Vaccination is defintely a type of immunisation, and obviously much safer.
I hope this response was helpful! 😄

active immunization by vaccination
A mass immunization campaign is when the vaccination needs lots of people to get the jab for it to work otherwise it doesn't work and the people who had the jab won't get any benefits from having it.
You need to get MMR twice. A normal schedule is at 1 yo and 4-6 yo.

Context clues that can help determine the meaning of "vaccination" include definitions, examples, or related terms found in surrounding sentences. For instance, if a text explains that vaccination involves administering a substance to stimulate immunity against diseases, it provides a clear definition. Additionally, references to diseases prevented by vaccinations or the process of immunization can further clarify its meaning.
Cultures with a strong emphasis on traditional medicine and skepticism toward Western medical practices may be less likely to participate in immunization for seasonal and H1N1 influenza. Additionally, communities with low levels of trust in government and healthcare systems, often due to historical injustices or discrimination, may also show resistance to vaccination. Religious beliefs or cultural practices that prioritize natural immunity over vaccination can further contribute to lower immunization rates. Lastly, misinformation and lack of access to reliable health information can deter participation in vaccination programs.
Immunization against smallpox has, for centuries, been infection with live vaccinia virus.

Immunization from a vaccination or from having had that exact type of flu will give you lifetime immunity. However, because viruses tend to mutate into other kinds of flu, your body may not recognize the germs as the same and then you would need protection from the new mutated virus, too. The 2010-2011 seasonal flu vaccination in the US contains the H1N1/09 vaccine along with vaccine for two other kinds of flu. If you had the swine flu vaccine last season, then it will not hurt you to take the vaccine again when you get the seasonal flu vaccination and it might help.
