Vaccines work by making your body create antibodies that fight off a specific pathogen (e.g., virus or bacteria). There are more vaccines for viruses today, but there are some for bacterial infections, too. The "Pneumonia Vaccine" is a vaccine against the bacteria Pneumococcus that is the one that most often causes pneumonia in the US.
Each viral vaccine is made to work for a specific virus or viruses, so viral strains that change form (mutate) frequently (like the common cold!) don't yet have a vaccine - or not one that lasts. Influenza viruses change, but more slowly than cold viruses, so we have a new flu vaccine every year. Typically the immunologists who study the flu look at what flu viruses are active in the Eastern parts of the world, like China where many types of flu originate and also look at the Southern Hemisphere during our summer and determine which strains are most likely to be here in the Northern Hemisphere by the time the flu season starts with colder weather in October. They pick the three most likely strains and usually one strain from each type of flu (A, B, and C) and begin production of that mix of virus antigens so they will be ready with the vaccine by fall. Some years they are better than others at predicting which strains will be in our outbreaks, but a good percentage of people are saved from illness or death each year using the seasonal flu vaccinations.

Herd vaccination refers to when the majority of a population or commumity are vaccinated that it creates immunity against a specific disease that they were vaccinated for. It creates some safety for the nonvaccinated individuals since the majority of the group have developed immunity and are protected from contracting and spreading the disease to others.
Not really. Different blood types have different protections and weaknesses to different diseases. Type O is resistant to malaria. Others can protect against certain diseases.
They're considered dangerous because they can contaminate others or spread diseases to others.
To the extent that they can't catch flu from you if you don't have it, yes.
The U.N. has been most successful in limiting the increase in the number and power of nuclear weapons.
This is because Mark Antony remains successful in completely turning the minds of the Romans,who supported the conspirators, against them and raging to seek revenge against Brutus and the others.
There are many reasons why you are as rich as others but not as successful. Some rich people are rich from family money or business, others are rich from investments. There are many reasons why someone can be rich, and not successful.
You can get diabetes, hypertension, heart diseases and many others
Simply put there are to many diseases. Some of the existing vaccines, pneumovax for example,only protect against a certain bacteria, and the flu vaccine is redeveloped each year to protect against the strain that is predicted to be the most prevalent. Others, like shingles vaccine protect against the disease, do NOT guarantee immunity but help to lessen the severity and pain associated with the disease.

People value others be successful because they feel as if they had a positive effect on someones life. By helping others, they may gain self-confidence that they can also become successful because, in my opinion, it is harder to help someone become successful (in the case they lack self-confidence than it is to be successful. Some people value it because they ultimately gain pride and joy from seeing others become successful which may have the effect that the person who received help from others will, in return, help others to become successful as well.
