Infection following immunization - what does this mean
Immunization-related infections occur when an individual's immune system is weakened following a vaccination, allowing a previously harmless virus or bacteria to cause an infection. this can happen when the body is unable to mount an adequate response to the vaccine or when the vaccine itself is contaminated with a pathogen.
What happens during the disease - infection following immunization
The pathogenesis of infection following immunization is typically caused by a weakened or incorrect immune response to the vaccine. this can be due to a variety of factors such as incorrect storage or administration of the vaccine, an incorrect dose, or an inadequate immune response due to an underlying illness or immunodeficiency. in some cases, the infection can be caused by the vaccine itself if it is contaminated or if it contains a live virus.
