Vaccinations play a major role in medicine today. explain the role of vaccines in the prevention of disease. your answer must include at least: a description of the contents of a vaccine a description of how a vaccine protects the body from disease one specific reason certain vaccinations are required for students to attend public schools.

Answer 1

   The  content  of  vaccine  varies  from  vaccine  to  vaccine  but   it  has  some  live   form  of   the  disease  in  the  vaccine
  Vaccine  work  by  injecting  a  small  amount  of  virus  in  the  blood  stream  along  some   other  agent  which  causes  the  body  to  produce  antibodies   which  fight  the  infection
  The  school  going  kids   receive  vaccine  because  their  body  is no  immunity  and  likely  to  be  a  carrier  of  diseases  and  spread  them.

Answer 2

Answer:

Measles vaccine.

Explanation:

The measles vaccine is necessary for students to attend public schools because measles is a very contagious disease and children are easy to get.

The vaccine that protects against measles is the triple viral and the viral tetra. The triple viral vaccine protects against measles, rubella and mumps. The viral tetra, in turn, protects against measles, mumps, rubella and also chickenpox (chicken pox). The current vaccination schedule recommends one dose of the triple viral vaccine at 12 months of age and another dose, but this time of the viral tetra at 15 months of age.

This vaccine is an attenuated vaccine containing “weakened” live measles, rubella, and mumps viruses; amino acids; human albumin; neomycin sulfate; sorbitol and gelatin. It also contains traces of chicken egg protein used in the vaccine manufacturing process. Upon entering the body, the immune system can combat weakened viruses and memorize how to fight them. This way the immune system can fight a possible measles virus much faster.
