Yes, plasmids can be used in DNA vaccines to fight bacteria by expressing antigens that trigger an immune response. Bacteriophages can also potentially be used in vaccines by delivering antigens or genes into host cells to stimulate an immune response against bacteria.

If you should get a virrulent strain in future, an effecient attack can then be launched automatically.

Dead or altered viruses or bacteria that are used to stimulate the body's immune response are called vaccines.

This allows the body to recognize and fight the pathogen more effectively if encountered in the future.

Is Vaccine a chemical that can kill bacteria without harming a person's cells?

Vaccines are biological substances that stimulate the immune system to produce antibodies against specific bacteria or viruses. They do not directly kill bacteria but rather help the immune system recognize and fight off these pathogens more efficiently. Vaccines are designed to be safe for use in humans and do not harm the body's cells.
