In folklore and popular culture, vampires are commonly depicted as having weaknesses such as sunlight, which can cause them to burn or disintegrate. They are also often portrayed as being repelled by garlic, crosses, and holy water. Additionally, vampires are said to be vulnerable to wooden stakes through the heart, which is believed to be a way to kill them.

The notion of silver harming vampires comes from Marvel Comics. From there, it made it's way into popular culture in movies and television. Silver does not affect vampires in the folklore. It doesn't even harm werewolves either for that matter. The use of silver as a weapon against monsters began with the Wolfman film of the early 1940's. Sunlight does not traditionally harm vampires either. That began with Nosferatu (the 1922 silent film).
Yes, vampires are just people who drink blood. That is their only difference from them and humans, they do not have any more strengths or weaknesses.
