Detailed explanation-1: -Vaccination is the administration of a vaccine in the human body. It can be given either orally or in injection form. Vaccines boost our immune system by developing immunity against disease-causing pathogens.
Detailed explanation-2: -Vaccines give you immunity to a disease without you getting sick first. They are made using killed or weakened versions of the disease-causing germ or parts of the germ (called antigens). For some vaccines, genetic engineering is used to make the antigens used in the vaccine.
Detailed explanation-3: -DNA vaccines are easy and inexpensive to make-and they produce strong, long-term immunity. Recombinant vector vaccines (platform-based vaccines) act like a natural infection, so they’re especially good at teaching the immune system how to fight germs.
Detailed explanation-4: -The measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine and the varicella (chickenpox) vaccine are examples. Killed (inactivated) vaccines are made from a protein or other small pieces taken from a virus or bacteria.
Detailed explanation-5: -Two of the vaccines available are messenger RNA (mRNA) vaccines. MRNA vaccines teach your cells to produce a harmless piece of the coronavirus spike protein that then triggers an immune response to build antibodies. In this way, you build immunity to COVID-19 without getting the illness.
