A vaccine can stop a person from catching a disease because when you have a vaccination, it injects dead cells of that disease and therefore you body has made antibodies to defend yourself if you do catch it. it does not stop you from catching it 100% because you could still catch it but there is little chance of it harming you or harming you as much. x
