Immunization involves introducing dead/weakened germs into your body. The body can 'fight' this infection easily. Later, if you come across the same germ, the memory cells in your immune system recognize them and it produces antibodies faster than it would have if it were un-immunized.

Immunization is the process in which a disease (usually sterile or dead) is purposefully put in your system so that your body can produce anti-bodies and protect itself from the real version of the disease.

These side effects include many traumas and deficiencies, but the U.S. government has established a department to help the victims of these side effects. These side effects are very rare, and occur only once in several millions of people.
