Preventing the spread of diseases
The purpose of a mass immunization program, is that the spread of disease slows down or completely stops. If enough people are vaccinated, the disease will not spread, unable to easily move from person to person.
About
Vaccines stimulate the human body's protective immune responses. This is done to prevent the infection from spreading within the body
Agaisnt certain diseases, some vaccines imitate an infection to teach the immune system how to fight off future infections.
Passive Immunity is provided when a person is given antibodies to a disease rather than producing them through their own immune system. example; and infant requires passive immunity from its mother through placenta
When you get a vaccine, it sparks the immune response, helping your body fight off and remember the germ so it can attack if the same germ or similar invades

What I already know
Diseases can be
Inherited
(passed down from genetic conditions),
Nutritional
(lacking of vitamins or minerals),
Degenerative
(caused by ageing processes),
Environmental
(exposure to chemicals)
