Transmission becomes improbable (Carolina, 2021).
Herd immunity include vaccination and prior illness
Achieved when a large population recovers from illness
How Immune Works
When the body detects antigens, the immune response eliminates them.
B cells are stimulated to produce antibodies
The proteins bind to certain antigens
Effects of Immunization
Vaccines are some of the safest medical medicines
The vaccination side effects are minimal (Carolina, 2021).
Therapy for anaphylaxis is initiated at immunization clinics.
Community/Worldwide effects of Immunization
