Vaccines have been one of the most effective tools in combating infectious diseases, contributing to the eradication or control of illnesses like smallpox, polio, and measles. Traditional vaccines work by introducing a harmless form of a pathogen—such as a weakened or inactivated virus, or a subunit containing proteins from the pathogen—into the body. This exposure triggers an immune response that prepares the body to recognize and fight the actual pathogen if encountered in the future.
