What is Postexposure prophylaxis?
It is any treatment given after exposure to a disease to try to prevent the disease from occurring
Why can injecting a person with a killed bacteria vaccine protect that individual from that disease?
Injecting someone with a killed bacteria protects that person because it causes the immune system to fight off that disease without being infected by it. The body thinks its being invaded by that disease and the immune system destroys it, and this will help prevent you from contracting it.
Which cells are important in preventing a disease from recurring?
White blood cells produce antibodies to diseases. The antibodies enter the bloodstream and prevent a specific disease from recurring. One type of white blood cells, called B cells, manufacture and release the antibodies. Another type, called T cells, does the job of penetrating the infected cells so that the antibodies can do their work.
What does a prevention trial evaluate?
A prevention trial seeks to find better ways to prevent disease from occurring or prevent disease from returning. Medicines, vaccines, vitamins, and lifestyle changes can all be candidates for a prevention trial.
Do antibodies prevent the pregnany?
No.
What causes a vaccine to prevent a certain disease?
a vaccination is a dead or deactivated virus. the body treats the vaccine as a threat to the body, so it fights the disease. it leaves you with memory T (killer cells) and B (cells that create antibodies). when the actual disease comes, the memory B cells make antibodies that stick to the disease cells antigens, and the memory T cells kill the disease, to end the disease before it can start.
Can fibrocystic breast disease be prevented?
No way has yet been proven to prevent the various manifestations of fibrocystic condition from occurring.
Do Antibodies prevent pathogens from infecting other cells.?
Yes. Antibodies do prevent pathogens from infecting other cells.
What injection is to stop you getting a disease?
A vaccination is an injection given to prevent a person from getting a specific disease by helping the immune system develop immunity to that disease. It contains a weakened or killed version of the germ that causes the disease, triggering the body to produce antibodies to protect against future infections.
Do vaccine cure or prevent disease?
Vaccines prevent disease by stimulating the immune system to produce protective antibodies against specific infections. While vaccines do not necessarily cure diseases once they are already contracted, they can help the body fight off the infection more effectively.
What the difference between the vaccine and serum?
a vaccine is a little dose of the disease that your body can handle. when the body is injected with it it will form antibodies that will be ready for the real disease when it comes while the serum is the antibodies themselves.
How does producing antibodies protect us from disease?
Antibodies are specific. This means that they "match" the infesting disease (antigen). The antigen causes the immune system to make the antibodies which will attack the disease. Without the antibodeis, the body will not be able to fight off and destroy the disease.
