ABSTRACT
 INTRODUCTION
Vaccination by definition are natural biological agent that evoke a safe reaction to a
particular antigen got from an irresistible infection causing pathogen (Czochor, & Turchick,
2014). Vaccination have essentially contributed to the overall decrease of mortality and
morbidity worldwide by reducing the occurrence of serious diseases and ailment
(Vanderslott, Dadonaite, & Roser, 2013). Vaccination is one in every of the foremost
effective ways to prevent diseases (WHO, 2019). A vaccine helps the body’s system to
acknowledge and fight pathogens like viruses or microorganism, and defend against over
twenty-five debilitating or critical diseases, together with contagion, polio, tetanus,
diphtheria, meningitis, influenza, tetanus, enteric fever and cervical cancer (WHO, 2019).

Vaccination also is the injection of a killed microorganism so as to stimulate the system

against the microorganism, thereby preventing sickness ((Shiel Jr., 2018). The agent
stimulates the body’s immune system to recognize it as foreign and acknowledge invasive
microorganism and viruses, so that the immune system can more easily identify and turn out
substances (antibodies) to destroy or disable them (Drexler,1970). Edward Jenner built up
the primary vaccine in 1796 utilizing cowpox to vaccinate against smallpox (history of
vaccination, 2017). His groundbreaking work subsequently led to the worldwide destruction
of smallpox, formally pronounced in 1980. From that point forward, vaccines have helped to
suppress the unfold of numerous irresistible illnesses as well as acute anterior poliomyelitis,
that has been eliminated from several countries, as well as all of these settled inside North
and South America and Europe (Czochor, & Turchick, 2014).

Today, individuals everywhere throughout the world experience the advantages of

vaccinations, starting in early stages. But some people have expressed concerns about
vaccine safety nowadays due to the controversial issue of the “Dengvaxia” that alarmed the
concerned of the public. However, the fact is that not all vaccines are not more likely of the
“Dengvaxia. Furthermore, the fact is vaccines save lives and protect against the spread of
disease. Most childhood vaccines are 90% to 99% effective in preventing disease and have
saved millions of lives for more than 50 years (Vaccine Safety: The Facts, n.d.). There may
be mild side effects, like swelling where the shot was given, but they do not last long and it
is rare for side effects to be serious.

 The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDCP), estimates that vaccination of
children born between 1994 to 2013will prevent 322 million illness more than the current
population of the entire U.S., help avoid 732,000 death Boston Massachusetts and have save
nearly $1.4 Trillion in total societal cost that includes $295 Billion in direct cost or $4,473
for each American that why the agency said the nation's childhood vaccine program has
been “highly effective,” (Rice,2014).

According Roush, S.W. ; Trudy V. Murphy, T.V. and & the Vaccine-Preventable Disease Table
Working Group JAMA. (2007), conducted a research comparing the Morbidity and Mortality
for Vaccine-Preventable Diseases in the United States showed that more than 92% decline
in cases and a 99% or larger decline in deaths because of diseases prevented by vaccines
recommended before 1980 were shown for diphtheria, mumps, pertussis, and tetanus.
Endemic transmission of poliovirus and measles and rubella viruses has been eliminated
within the United States; smallpox has been eradicated worldwide. Declines were  80%
or larger for cases and deaths of most vaccine-preventable diseases targeted since
1980 further as viral hepatitis, acute hepatitis B, Hib, and chickenpox. Declines in cases and
deaths of invasive S pneumonia were 34% and 25%, respectively.
