EXPANDED PROGRAM ON IMMUNIZATION
Immunity-✅✅ Condition of being protected against a particular disease
2 Types of Immunity-✅✅ Natural/Innate
Adaptive

Natural/Innate Immunity- ✅✅ The body's inborn system to protect itself

defend itself

Antigen-✅✅ Substance that causes the body to produce specific
antibodies

Antibody- ✅✅ Substance that is produced by the immune system and
defends the body against infections.

Naturally Acquired Active Immunity- ✅✅ Resulting from infection
eg: COVID-19 creates antibodies

Artificially Acquired Active Immunity-✅✅ Injection of Antigen (vaccine:
attenuated, killed, toxoid, recombinant DNA)
Giving a copy of the microorganism will trigger the immune system to
produce antibodies against the real microorganism to prevent infection

Naturally Acquired Passive Immunity- ✅✅ Transplacental or colostrum
Antibodies gained by the mother either through infections or vaccine will be
transferred to the baby

Artificially Acquired Passive Immunity-✅✅ Injection of antibody
