Vaccination

http://www.practiceofmadness.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/06/vaccination-debate.jpgVaccinations can stop a virus  because a vaccination is an injection if weakened pathogens to provide immunity.  They help in the immune system in which they create many plasma cells that are ready to produce certain types of antibodies.  Active immunity is a type of immunity that is made from the body's reaction toward a vaccine.  This kind of immunity is made as a result of natural exposure to an antigen (fight an infection) or through deliberate exposure to an antigen (through vaccine). (Biology Textbook pg. 1041 and 1042)
