a vaccination is a dead or deactivated virus. the body treats the vaccine as a threat to the body, so it fights the disease. it leaves you with memory T (killer cells) and B (cells that create antibodies). when the actual disease comes, the memory B cells make antibodies that stick to the disease cells antigens, and the memory T cells kill the disease, to end the disease before it can start.

Has the hpv vaccine caused women to get cervical cancer?
There is no evidence that HPV vaccine causes cervical cancer. Because the vaccine doesn't contain live virus, it can't cause HPV disease.
Why can injecting a person with a killed bacteria vaccine protect that individual from that disease?
Injecting someone with a killed bacteria protects that person because it causes the immune system to fight off that disease without being infected by it. The body thinks its being invaded by that disease and the immune system destroys it, and this will help prevent you from contracting it.
What is rotavirus vaccine used for?
Rotavirus is a disease that causes extreme diarrhea particularly in children and the elderly. The vaccine is given to children aged 2 to 3 years old and effectively reduces the number of children who contract the disease, and the severity for those who do get it.
What injection is to stop you getting a disease?
A vaccination is an injection given to prevent a person from getting a specific disease by helping the immune system develop immunity to that disease. It contains a weakened or killed version of the germ that causes the disease, triggering the body to produce antibodies to protect against future infections.
Which disease is it that is vaccine-preventable and may be contracted by unimmunized children from adults and causes a paroxysmal cough?
Pertussis, aka Whooping Cough.
Does the ear infection have a vaccine?
There is no specific vaccine for ear infections themselves, but vaccines can help prevent some of the underlying causes. For example, the pneumococcal vaccine and the Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib) vaccine can reduce the risk of infections caused by bacteria that may lead to ear infections. Additionally, the influenza vaccine can help prevent respiratory infections that might contribute to ear infections in children.
How does a vaccination prevent infection?
The vaccine is made of weakened virus particles. This causes your body to produce interferon to fight an infection. :-)
What does a vaccine produce?
When a vaccine is given to an animal, the animal's immune system produces antibodies to fight off the disease. This way, if the animal is ever infected by the disease it was vaccinated against, the animal will either not get sick or not get as sick.

What is diarrhea vaccine?
Diarrhea is a symptom of several diseases, not a disease itself. Therefor there is no vaccine for diarrhea. But there are vaccines for some of the diseases that cause diarrhea as a symptom. However there are also non-disease causes of diarrhea and for these there will never be a vaccine, as there is nothing to vaccinate against.Diarrhea is also a symptom of several types of poisons as well as radiation sickness and although these can be considered "diseases" or "illnesses", there is no disease causing organism to vaccinate against so there will never be a vaccine.
What are the most common causes of vaccine compromise?
The most common causes of vaccine compromise include improper storage and handling, which can lead to loss of potency, as well as expiration of the vaccine before use. Additionally, administering the vaccine incorrectly, such as via the wrong route or dosage, can also compromise its effectiveness. Lastly, individual factors such as immunosuppression or certain medical conditions may affect a person's response to vaccination.
