A vaccine protects against a future illness. An antiserum treats a current illness.
Vaccines prevent diseases, medications treat them.
Salman Khaliq Bajwa from PAF-KIET damigo88@live.com The difference between antibodies and vaccines are; 1. Antibodies are micro organisms in our body for our defense. Vaccines are diluted living or dead antigens. 2. Antibodies are natural. Vaccines are artificial, 3. Antibodies kill the bacteria, viruses and toxic substances in our body. Vaccines does not kill but it actually activates the antibodies in our body.
A pro biotic is designed to aid digestion. A vaccine is (usually) an injection to protect you against disease.
By when people have them they stop you from getting the illness so less people have been getting diseases because of the vaccines
Vaccines are substances given to stimulate the body's immune system to produce a specific immune response, providing immunity to a particular disease. Disinfectants, on the other hand, are chemicals or substances used to kill or inactivate microorganisms on surfaces to prevent the spread of infection. Vaccines are used to prevent disease in individuals, while disinfectants are used to kill germs on surfaces.
Vaccines use different types of vaccination technology - Polysaccharide and Conjugate are different types of technologies. It is generally considered that Conjugate vaccines provide superior long-term protection versus Polysaccharide vaccines because of the mechanism by which they create an antibody response. While polysaccharide vaccines may offer individual protection, they do not provide the same level of "herd immunity" (i.e. non-immunized individuals provided protection due to number of immunized individulas in community) provided by Conjugate vaccines.
A drug, by definition, is any substance altering the physical or mental state of your body. That being said, an antibiotic is a drug, but in most cases, isn't harmful to the body as it is prescribed by a professional in the field.
Edible vaccines are vaccines produced in plants genetically modified through bioengineering.
difference between as on and as at
The only real difference is the medium that holds the virus in the vaccine, one is made for injection into muscles and the other is for using as a nasal mist. The current vaccination for H1N1/09 is available in both types of vaccines. The virus used in both vaccines is the same, except the nasal mist uses "live attenuated" viruses (they are still active whole viruses but have been treated to weaken them so they can not make an otherwise healthy person sick). The viruses in the vaccine for giving in a shot are totally inactive ("dead") or are just pieces of the virus particles instead of the whole viral organism, which also can not make you sick. See the related question below about which is better to use for your circumstances.
Vaccines do not cause AIDS.
Vaccines are usually small amount of the disease you are trying to prevent. Introducing small amounts of the virus or bacteria, whether it is live or inactive, stimulate your immune system to strengthen its defenses against that germ.
