I’m so sorry, because it shouldn’t even be like that at all.

It still baffles me honestly that not only is it still being pushed, but that some people unfortunately believe it. 🤦‍♀️

100% agreed

Oh no don’t worry! I figured! ☺️

Nothing at all, that’s the thing.

Correct

In this way, the body is trained to fight the specific disease-causing organism, building up memory of the pathogen so as to rapidly fight it if and when exposed in the future. As always, vaccination remains THE key intervention against severe disease, hospitalization,

would have on its first reaction to the actual pathogen. Some vaccines require MULTIPLE doses/boosters given weeks or months apart. THIS IS NORMAL. This is sometimes needed to allow for the production of long-lived antibodies and development of memory cells.

Regardless of whether the vaccine is made up of the antigen itself or the blueprint so that the body will produce the antigen, this weakened version WILL NOT cause the disease in the person receiving the vaccine, but it will prompt their immune system to respond much as it

viral components that make up the virus itself. Again, the mRNA vaccines do not contain any virus, so you cannot get a virus from the vaccine. The protein that helps your immune system recognize and fight the virus DOES NOT cause infection of any sort.

mRNA vaccines instruct your cells to reproduce a protein that is part of the virus, which helps your body recognize and fight the virus, if it comes along. Note. The protein IS NOT the virus. It’s a protein. It can’t do anything on its own without other

Think about why we may call something NOVEL. New Pathogen? Essentially NO antibody. This is where vaccines work. They can help prevent disease. When not enough people get them, diseases CAN return. This is why childhood vaccination is ESPECIALLY important.

So how do vaccines help? Vaccines can contain weakened or inactive parts of a particular organism (antigen) that triggers an immune response within the body. Newer vaccines contain the blueprint for producing antigens rather than the antigen itself.
