WHAT IS
IMMUNISATION
• IMMUNISATION IS AN EFFORT TO
STIMULATE THE BODY DEFENCE
AGAINST INFECTIONS IN BABIES,
CHILDREN AND ADULTS BY
INJECTING VACCINES
• A VACCINE CONTAINS ANTIGENS
FROM A PART OR THE WHOLE
STRUCTURE OF A WEAKENED OR
DEAD VIRUS OR BACTERIUM
 • IMMUNITY CAN BE CLASSIFIED INTO
TWO TYPES, PASSIVE IMMUNITY
AND ACTIVE IMMUNITY
PASSIVE • BOTH IMMUNITIES CAN BE
IMMUNITY OBTAINED NATURALLY AND
AND ACTIVE ARTIFICIALLY
IMMUNITY
PASSIVE
IMMUNITY
(GAINS
ANTIBODY
FROM
EXTERNAL
SOURCES)
NEUTRAL

• OBTAINED WHEN A BABY

RECEIVES ANTIBODY FROM
BREAST MILK OR FROM THE
MOTHER’S BLOOD THAT FLOWS
ACROSS THE PLACENTA
• THE IMMUNITY IS TEMPORARY
AND SHORT-LIVED, LASTS FOR THE
FIRST FEW MONTHS AFTER THE
BIRTH OF THE BABY
ARTIFICIAL

• OBTAINED WHEN AN
ANTISERUM IS INJECTED INTO
THE PATIENT’S BODY
• THE ANTISERUM FIGHTS
AGAINST PATHOGENS
WITHOUT INTERRUPTING THE
PATIENT’S IMMUNE SYSTEM
ACTIVE
IMMUNITY
(PRODUCES ITS
OWN
ANTIBODIES
WHEN
STIMULATED
BY ANTIGENS)
NEUTRAL

• OCCURS WHEN A PERSON

RECOVERS FROM AN
INFECTION
• THE IMMUNITY LASTS LONG
AFTER THE INFECTION
ARTIFICIAL

• OCCURS WHEN A VACCINE THAT

CONTAINS A DEADB OR
WEAKENED PATHOGEN IS
INJECTED INTO THE BODY, AND
THE IMMUNE SYSTEM
RESPONDS BY PRODUCING
ANTIBODIES
• THE IMMUNE SYSTEM LASTS
LONG AFTER THE INFECTION
STRONG
IMMUNE
SYSTEM
• THE HUMAN BODY IS
MADE UP OF VARIOUS
SYSTEMS INCLUDING
THE IMMUNE SYSTEM

• WHEN THERE IS AN
IMBALANCE IN THE
BODY OR TOO MUCH
TOXINS, THE IMMUNE
SYSTEM BECOMES
WEAK
CAUSES THAT WEAKEN THE IMMUNE
SYSTEM

EXPOSURE TO EXPOSURE TO STRESS EXCESSIVE

POLLUTED AIR PESTICIDES INTAKE OF
SUGAR
 PRACTICES THAT STRENGTHEN THE
IMMUNE SYSTEM

• GETTING ENOUGH SLEEP AND REST

• EXERCISING AND INHALING FRESH AIR
• NOT SMOKING AND NO EXPOSURE TO CIGARETTE SMOKE
• DOING PERIODIC HEALTH EXAMINATION
