Artificial active immunity is achieved through vaccination, where safe forms of antigens (like inactivated pathogens or modified toxins) are introduced to stimulate the immune system to produce antibodies and memory cells, priming the body for future infections.
La inmunidad activa artificial se logra mediante la vacunación, donde se introducen formas seguras de antígenos (como patógenos inactivados o toxinas modificadas) para estimular al sistema inmunitario a producir anticuerpos y células de memoria, preparando al cuerpo para futuras infecciones.

| Back | artificial active immunity (immune system of body stimulated to make own antibodies to a safe form of antigen (vaccine) which is injected; - pathogen made safe so no risk of infection; killed/inactivated bacteria/viruses, weekened strains of live bacteria/viruses, toxin molecules altered and detoxified, isolated antigens extracted from pathogen, genetically engineered antigens - small amounts of vaccine injected, triggering primary immune response, producing antibodies/memory cells, if in future you come in contact with live pathogen, secondary immune response triggered and pathogen destroyed before symptoms |
