A pathogen that can exist on dead or decaying material in the absence of the host.
A dead or very weak form of the disease.
You'd most likely want to expose yourself to a "dead" version of that pathogen via vaccination.
it is not absorbed because of dead cells, or pathogen!
A vaccination must contain either a weakened or inactivated form of the disease-causing pathogen, or specific pieces of the pathogen such as proteins or genetic material. This prompts the body's immune system to recognize and remember the pathogen, allowing it to quickly mount a response if the person is exposed to the actual pathogen in the future.
Dead or altered viruses or bacteria that are used to stimulate the body's immune response are called vaccines. Vaccines contain weakened or inactivated forms of the pathogen, or certain proteins or subunits of the pathogen, to trigger an immune response without causing the disease. This allows the body to recognize and fight the pathogen more effectively if encountered in the future.
A dead form of a pathogen that stimulates an immune response is known as an inactivated or killed vaccine. These vaccines contain pathogens that have been killed or inactivated so they cannot cause disease but are still able to elicit an immune response. This process helps the immune system recognize and remember the pathogen, providing protection against future infections. Examples include the polio vaccine and the hepatitis A vaccine.
The dimention
pathogen means microorganism, so pathogen diseases means diseases caused by microorganisms
An avirulent pathogen is a pathogen that is unable to cause disease in its host. This may be due to mutations that have reduced its ability to infect or harm the host, making it less pathogenic compared to a virulent pathogen.
You have to specify the pathogen.
There are infinitely many things that do not contribute to the virulence of a pathogen. Elvis does not contribute to the virulence of a pathogen.
