How Vaccines Work

 Your body’s immune system works to fight off illnesses. Each time you catch a specific virus, your body can learn how to produce antibodies to fight that specific virus. However, many highly contagious viruses can make someone seriously ill and can be life-threatening. Viruses like measles can even cause blindness. 

Vaccines safely teach your body how to develop immunity without you getting sick. A vaccination shot contains a small, weakened strain of a specific disease. Once it enters your system, it shows your body how to naturally produce antibodies for that specific disease. Some vaccines need to be repeated from time to time, such as a flu shot. Others like those for chickenpox can provide lifelong immunity.
