little bit of a disease pathogen that is weak or dead. This little bit of the pathogen inside your body makes your body’s defense system build antibodies to fight off this kind of pathogen.

do? Vaccines are the insertion of dead or weakened pathogens into the body. The immune system uses the pathogens to create immune cells that kill the disease-causing pathogens when they attack in the future.

Active immunity is exposure to antigens from pathogens entering the body. This results in the immune system

response elicited by this primary exposure to vaccine pathogen creates immunological memory‚ which involves the generation of a pool of immune cells that will recognize the pathogen and mount a more robust or secondary response upon subsequent exposure to the virus or bacterium. In successful immunization‚ the secondary immune response is sufficient to prevent disease in the infected individual‚ as well as prevent the transmission of the pathogen to others. For communicable diseases‚ immunizations

Healthcare acquired infections also known as nosocomial infections are defined as an infection obtained by a patient 48 hours or later after admission into a healthcare service. Any infections thought to be obtained prior to 48 hours are considered to be obtained within the community (Gould et al‚ 2000). This standard of the 48 hour inoculation period is however arbitrary as it has remained the standard for many years despite the variable rate of incubation in different bacteria (Ami et al‚ 2003)
