    The document is a comparison between immunization and vaccination submitted by Rimsha Timotheous for their Microbiology course. Immunization is the process the body undergoes after vaccination to build resistance to a disease, while vaccination is the administration of vaccines to stimulate immunity. The key difference is that immunization is the body's natural response after exposure to a vaccine, whereas vaccination is the medical process of introducing a weakened form of a pathogen.
