List of vaccine topics
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This is a list of vaccine-related topics.
A vaccine is a biological preparation that improves immunity to a particular disease. A vaccine typically contains an agent that resembles a disease-causing microorganism, and is often made from weakened or killed forms of the microbe or its toxins. The agent stimulates the body's immune system to recognize the agent as foreign, destroy it, and "remember" it, so that the immune system can more easily recognize and destroy any of these microorganisms that it later encounters.[1]
Human vaccines
In the tables below, a brand might not be linked for one of two reasons: the brand name has neither an article or a redirect, or the brand name redirect points at the row's Vaccine Article (indicating no independent article). Some vaccines have been marked as 'discontinued' based on information in the target article.
