As everyone know, vaccine is a substance used to stimulate the production of antibodies and provide immunity against one or several diseases. But there are actually several ways on how vaccines can do that.
There 4 main types of vaccines that are currently in clinical use. First I'm going to discuss on the use of inactive vaccine.
1. Inactive Vaccine
Inactive vaccine works with the use of virus or bacteria that's been grown in culture and then killed by heat or formaldehyde. Even though the virus or bacteria has been killed, it can't replicate itself. When it is manufactured correctly, the vaccine is not infectious. However, improper inactivation can cause infectious particles.
