Question answered by The American Association of Immunologists
How do vaccines protect us?
Vaccines help our immune systems fight infection
faster and more effectively. They do this by
triggering an immune response that trains your
body to recognize disease-causing germs and
fight them off if they ever invade your body.
To induce an immune response, some vaccines
are made of very small amounts of weak or dead
germs that won’t make you sick. Other vaccines
carry information that allow cells to produce a
target that your immune system recognizes and
reacts to. Some people can experience mild side
effects from some vaccines, such as soreness at
the injection site, but these usually resolve
quickly.
The idea that vaccines cause autism came from a
long-since-discredited and retracted study that
incorrectly linked the measles, mumps and rubella
(MMR) vaccine to autism. This connection has
never been accurately confirmed.
