Immunisation and Vaccination Training - E-Learning Courses - CPDUK Accredited

Vaccination is when a vaccine is administered to you (usually by injection). Immunisation is what happens in your body after you have the vaccination. The vaccine stimulates your immune system so that it can recognise the disease and protect you from future infection (i.e. you become immune to the infection).

The terms’ vaccination’ and ‘immunisation’ don’t mean quite the same thing. Vaccination is the term used for getting a vaccine – that is, actually getting the injection or taking an oral vaccine dose.

Immunisation is the process whereby a person is made immune or resistant to an infectious disease, typically by the administration of a vaccine. Vaccines stimulate the body’s immune system to protect the person against subsequent infection or disease.

The purpose of immunisation and vaccination is to produce immunity. Immunity means the presence in a person’s body of cells and substances known as antibodies that can provide a protective immune response.

The measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine and varicella (chickenpox) vaccine are examples. Examples are diphtheria and tetanus vaccines.

Benefits of Immunisation. Immunisation is a simple and effective way of protecting yourself and your family. Immunisation works by triggering the immune system to fight against certain diseases. If a vaccinated person comes in contact with these diseases, their immune system can respond more effectively.

Soreness, redness, or swelling, tiredness, fatigue, headache, muscle or joint pain, fever, chills, nausea, or diarrhoea can happen after meningococcal B vaccine. Some of these reactions occur in more than half of the people who receive the vaccine.

Most symptoms start within the first 12 hours. Redness and fever starting on day 1 of the shooting are always normal. All of these reactions mean the vaccine is working. Your child’s body is making new antibodies to protect against the real disease.

Vaccines contain the same germs that cause disease. (For example, measles vaccine contains measles virus, and Hib vaccine contains Hib bacteria.) After getting vaccinated, you develop immunity to that disease, without having to get the disease first.

A vaccination is a treatment which makes the body stronger against a particular infection. Vaccination involves showing the immune system something which looks very similar to a specific virus or bacteria, which helps the immune system be more reliable when it is fighting against the real infection.

Complete or full immunisation cover as a child has received a BCG vaccination against tuberculosis; three doses of DPT vaccine to prevent diphtheria, pertussis, and tetanus (DPT); at least three doses of polio vaccine; and one dose of measles vaccine.

Immunisation and vaccination is a simple and effective way of protecting children from serious diseases. It not only helps protect individuals, but it also protects the broader community by minimising the spread of disease. Vaccines work by triggering the immune system to fight against certain diseases.

The goals of global vaccination are to control, eliminate, or eradicate infectious diseases in a way that strengthens health systems and is sustainable.

Vaccines are like a training course for the immune system. They prepare the body to fight disease without exposing it to disease symptoms. When foreign invaders such as bacteria or viruses enter the body, immune cells called lymphocytes respond by producing antibodies, which are protein molecules.

Each vaccine contains a small amount of the disease germ (virus or bacteria) or parts of the germ. Examples are the measles virus, pertussis (whooping cough) bacteria, and tetanus toxoid.

Here are the recommended vaccines by WHO:

• Diphtheria
• Hepatitis B
• Haemophilus influenzae type b
• Human papillomavirus
• Seasonal influenza
• Measles
• Mumps
• Pertussis.

Some vaccines cause a temporary headache, fatigue or loss of appetite. Rarely, a child might experience a severe allergic reaction or a neurological side effect, such as a seizure. Although these rare side effects are a concern, the risk of a vaccine causing serious harm or death is minimal.

Vaccines can protect against long-term complications of infections. The efficacy of vaccines is most often in terms of their capacity to protect against the immediate consequences of serious diseases such as meningitis, pneumonia, hepatitis, chickenpox and measles.

Vaccines do not make a child sick with the disease, and they do not weaken the immune system. Vaccines introduce a killed/disabled antigen into the body so the immune system can produce antibodies against it and create immunity to the disease.

While this is not ideal, it is safe to repeat vaccinations. Additionally, your doctor may want to do blood tests to see if you are immune to certain vaccine-preventable diseases.

Children under the age of 9 years may need two doses. Talk to your child’s healthcare provider to find out if your child needs more than one treatment. Your child should receive two doses of MMR vaccine.

All adults need seasonal flu (influenza) vaccine every year. The flu vaccine is especially important for people with chronic health conditions, pregnant women, and older adults.

Vaccines can prevent infectious diseases that once killed or harmed, many infants, children, and adults. Without vaccines, your child is at risk for getting seriously ill and suffering pain, disability, and even death from diseases like measles and whooping cough.
