Well, originally, they frequently did cause very mild cases of the disease in question, but the patient recovered easily, and was left with immunity to the disease. As medicine improved over time, the vaccines were engineered to the point where they still gave very effective protection from the diseases, but only in the rarest of cases did they actually affect the health of the person receiving them in any way - perhaps a mild fever for a day or so, but nothing else.
