Immunization
Immunization
Immunization
is a crucial part of preventive healthcare that helps protect individuals and
communities from infectious diseases. It involves administering vaccines that
contain weakened or inactive forms of disease-causing agents or components.
Immunization activates the immune system to recognize and fight specific
pathogens, building immunity and reducing the risk of contracting associated
diseases. Vaccines have helped eradicate or significantly reduce the incidence
of many dangerous illnesses, such as polio, measles, and tetanus. They not only
protect individuals but also contribute to public health by preventing the
spread of infectious diseases. Immunization is a safe and effective method that
saves lives and plays a critical role in maintaining population health and
well-being.
