Vaccines are important tools that help prevent the spread of Infectious Diseases. A vaccine is a substance introduced into the body to stimulate the production of chemicals that destroy specific viruses or bacteria. A vaccine may be made from dead or altered viruses or bacteria. Because they are dead or altered, the viruses or bacteria in the vaccine do not cause disease. Instead, they activate the body's natural defenses. In effect, the vaccine puts the body "on alert." If that virus or bacterium ever invades the body, it is destroyed before it can cause disease. You may have been vaccinated against diseases such as polio, measles, tetanus, and chickenpox.
