Vaccines are made up of viruses or bacteria that have been killed or weakened, also known as an antigen, that try to make our antibodies which are called upon by lymphocytes, fight off the virus or bacteria that was placed into the body. But sometimes the antibodies don’t win the fight… Vaccinations use immunisation to prevent infectious diseases by using our bodies natural defence mechanism and if the body can fight off the infectious disease the body will build a resistance to the specific injection. But the rate of immunisation is dropping and the vaccinations are no longer working and this is unfavorable because when the antibodies can’t fight off the injection of the whooping cough, for example, the child then gets the whooping cough. Childhood vaccinations can have an important non-health related types consequences for the children 's well being like, their school attendance, physical growth, and cognitive ability.
