What is Preparation and standardization of vaccines and immunization?
IT is prepared by weakening or killing a germ of that disease which is not strong enough to cause a disease. vaccines are given through a needle. these causes antibodies in the body's immune system which protect the body from diseases.
Why doesn't measles vaccine protect you from all of several diseases?
Vaccines only protect for one disease.
How do antigens protect the body from diseases?
Antigens do not protect the body from disease. Antibodies protect the body from many diseases.
What is special about vaccines?
Because it helps to prevent certain diseases to immunize our body
What are people opinon on vaccination that have side effects?
Side effects are generally mild, and occur sparingly. The diseases the vaccines PROTECT against, however, can leave people crippled, seriously ill, or can kill (but in a horrible, painful way). Believe me when I say, the vaccines are far better than the diseases they protect against, even if there are side effects.
Do vaccines work against viruses and bacteria?
No. Vaccines are not used for treatment. They are used as prevention.
A Vaccination is the most effective tool for?
preventing infectious diseases by stimulating the immune system to produce an immune response without causing the disease itself. This helps protect individuals and communities by building immunity and reducing the spread of diseases.
Do vaccines kill viruses or horrible diseases?
Vaccines don't kill viruses or diseases; they prevent disease before you are infected.
Why are some vaccines not suitable for all diseases?
Simply put there are to many diseases. Some of the existing vaccines, pneumovax for example,only protect against a certain bacteria, and the flu vaccine is redeveloped each year to protect against the strain that is predicted to be the most prevalent. Others, like shingles vaccine protect against the disease, do NOT guarantee immunity but help to lessen the severity and pain associated with the disease.
What is the difference between vaccines and medications?
Vaccines prevent diseases, medications treat them.
How are vaccines beneficial?
Vaccines are beneficial in that they have helped prevent millions of cases of infectious disease, and hundreds of thousands of deaths. Vaccines have eliminated the scourge of smallpox from the face of the earth, and polio and other diseases have been largely controlled. A vaccine acts by stimulating a person's own immune system to produce antibodies against parts of a bacterium or virus. When the person is once again exposed to that bacterium or virus, the body can quickly produce antibodies and prevent infection. In addition, vaccines can protect individuals who have not been immunized. If the percentage of the population that is vaccinated is high enough, epidemics can't take hold, as there are not enough susceptible individuals for the infection to spread. This helps to protect those individuals who are either unable to take the vaccine, unable to mount an immune response (chronically illl individuals, infants under 6 months old, people on immunosuppressant medications), or who had a poor response to the vaccine (and didn't become immune).
What diseases do vaccines cure?
Vaccines do not "cure" diseases, but they can prevent serious illnesses by helping the body build immunity against specific viruses or bacteria. Some diseases that can be prevented by vaccines include measles, mumps, rubella, polio, influenza, and COVID-19.
