Best Answer

A vaccine is a special version of an antigen the gives you immunity against a disease. A vaccine is a weakened form of disease which helps your immune system create antibodies to fight it off so later if you ever get that certain disease again your body would recognize it and create antibodies to fight against it before it gets too serious.

How does a DNA vaccine prevent future disease?

A DNA vaccine contains DNA from a pathogen but cannot cause disease. When the vaccine is injected into a patient, the DNA directs the synthesis of a protein.
