Human Vaccines
Human vaccines are substances used to stimulate a person’s immune system to produce immunity against a specific disease. Vaccines work by introducing a weakened or inactive form of the disease-causing organism into the body. Once inside, the body recognizes the organism as foreign and produces antibodies to fight it off. This provides immunity from the disease. Vaccines are important as they can prevent a person from catching or spreading a disease. They are used around the world to protect both individuals and whole populations from potentially deadly infectious diseases, including polio, measles, influenza, and hepatitis.
