Essay from the year 2018 in the subject Biology - Diseases, Health, Nutrition, grade: 3.0, Kenyatta University, language: English, abstract: In this current era of implausible technology, discovery and medicine, it has adequately been proven that vaccines prevent diseases/infections. Significant medical institutions have for years conclusively supported and even advised the administration of vaccinations to avert infections that at times caused devastating impacts in both the person who contracted and in communities subjected to the disease transmission. Even though a stiff debate on the risks and benefits of vaccination remains evident; with some groups protesting against the constitutionality of vaccine administration, the proponents of this debate have proven that failure to exercising this practice subjects the unvaccinated individual to sickness and even fatality through disease acquisition and transmission. Despite the fact that several novel statistics have demonstrated reduced occurrence of infections with consequences resulting from vaccine-induced passive immunity, fear of risks associated with vaccination still loom. Currently, there are several individuals who are not aware of diseases still occurring in underdeveloped economies due to herd immunity via a majority vaccinated population. However, due to globalization, diseases that may be prevented through vaccination have the potential of landing anywhere.
