Immunity
Resistance to disease or poison refers to an organism's ability to withstand the harmful effects of pathogens or toxins. This resistance can be influenced by various factors, including genetics, immunity, and detoxification mechanisms. Strong resistance can help prevent illness or death in the face of exposure to harmful agents.
Pathogens can cause disease in the human body by invading tissues, releasing toxins, and triggering an immune response that can damage healthy cells and tissues.
Biological resistance refers to the body's natural ability to repel attacks by biotic agents such as pathogens or toxins. It could also mean the genetic ability to survive lethal doses of biocides.
Pathogens are harmful because they can invade the body, replicate, and cause damage to tissues and organs. They can also trigger immune responses that lead to inflammation and other negative effects on the body's normal functioning. Additionally, pathogens can produce toxins that are harmful to the body.
Toxigenesis, or the ability to produce toxins, is an underlying mechanism by which many bacterial pathogens produce disease. Examples of this are: Corynebacterium diphtheriae, Clostridium tetani, Clostridium perfringens and Streptococcus pyogenes.
Poisons produced by pathogenic bacteria are called "bacterial toxins."
Toxins
Toxins.

Some pathogens produce toxins.
Erythrogenic
Astrocytes are most responsible for preventing pathogens and toxins from entering the brain through blood.
A vaccine
yes.
If they have been contaminated with pathogens or toxins, yes.
