Vaccines are recommended from the time you're born and continue throughout your adult life. The purpose of vaccines is to protect you from getting sick.
A vaccine contains a small amount of the germs that cause the disease you’re wanting to avoid. It’s introduced to your immune system in a weakened state, which allows your immune system to recognize the disease and fight it.
Once you get a vaccine, your immune system creates antibodies to protect you from getting certain illnesses and diseases.
