When the body gets infected with a new germ, it activates fighting tools (called cells) to fight. This way it tackles illness and learns to protect itself from future attacks. Vaccines are artificially developed and injected into the body to identify and fight specific germs. Natural immunity is the best defense mechanism for us. However, due to unpredictability of any unknown infection, the basic advantage a vaccine offers is safety and level of immunity.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/avignadiagnostics.com\/creating-clarity\/covid-19-vaccines-work\/\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-393\" title=\"Vaccines are artificially developed \" src=\"http:\/\/avignadiagnostics.com\/creating-clarity\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Fight-specific-Germs.jpg\" alt=\"Vaccines are artificially developed and injected into the body to identify and fight specific germs\" width=\"700\" height=\"394\" srcset=\"http:\/\/avignadiagnostics.com\/creating-clarity\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Fight-specific-Germs.jpg 1334w, http:\/\/avignadiagnostics.com\/creating-clarity\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Fight-specific-Germs-300x169.jpg 300w, http:\/\/avignadiagnostics.com\/creating-clarity\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Fight-specific-Germs-768x432.jpg 768w, http:\/\/avignadiagnostics.com\/creating-clarity\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Fight-specific-Germs-1024x576.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/avignadiagnostics.com\/creating-clarity\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Fight-specific-Germs-1140x642.jpg 1140w, http:\/\/avignadiagnostics.com\/creating-clarity\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Fight-specific-Germs-552x311.jpg 552w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Jennifer Gommerman, an immunologist at the University of Toronto says, \u201cVaccine is optimally tailored to generate an effective immune response.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Over 200 vaccines are in process of being developed.
