Why does passive immunity usually not last for long?

When you have immunity, your body has antibodies against a foreign organisms (i.e. bacteria and virus) . Usually this is achieved by exposure to these organisms. That is: 1. you get an infection (or vaccination with inactive parts of a bacteria or virus), 2.your body defeats the invader, 3. some of the cells in your body "remember" which antibodies they produced , 4. next time you are exposed to the same foreign organism, these cells quickly produce antibodies so you won´t get ill (i.e. you are immune) When you have passive immunity, it usually is due to a vaccination with antibodies. Your body hasn´t produced the antibodies on its own. So once the antibodies become too old and inactive, you are not immune any longer, and when you encounter the foreign organism again, it will be like a novel infection, because it has no memory cells, which can respond quickly.

What do white blood cells produce prevent infection?

White blood cells produce antibodies, which are proteins that help identify and neutralize harmful pathogens like bacteria and viruses. They also produce cytokines, which are signaling molecules that help regulate immune responses and coordinate the body's defenses against infection.


The injection of a killed or weakened virus into a person so that they will produce antibodies and thus be protected from future infection by the virus is called?

This is called vaccination. The process helps the immune system recognize and remember the virus, so if the person is exposed to the virus in the future, their immune system can quickly produce the necessary antibodies to fight off the infection.
