WHY RE-IMMUNIZATION IS NEED

Hello steemian friends wherever you are, meet again with me @iqbal-pasee, one of the atomians member in Indonesia.
On this occasion I will discuss about why repeat immunization is needed.
You may be wondering why some types of immunization must be given more than once at certain intervals. Is one dose not enough? And isn't that a waste?
Immunization through the administration of vaccines will stimulate a special mechanism to recognize a microorganism through memory cells. If in the future disease-causing microorganisms enter the body, memory cells will form specific antibody cells to fight these microorganisms.
Unfortunately in most vaccines, the first dose given is not able to stimulate the formation of a sufficient number of memory cells to prevent disease. In addition, the levels of antibodies that are formed will decrease over time. Therefore, an additional dose of immunization is needed to form more memory cells, so that more antibodies will be produced.

Repeat immunization also requires a certain interval or time lag, if given too quickly the antibodies produced by the first vaccine will eliminate the vaccine given at the repeat injection. Meanwhile, if the pause is too long, there will be a period in which a child will be susceptible to a disease because the antibody levels are low or have disappeared.
The next immunization schedule has taken into account these things through a series of studies, so that the child's immunity can be optimal.
"Remember prevention is much better than cure"
So much information from me about the immunization schedule, hopefully it will be useful and look forward to the next tips in my post.
Thank you for dropping by at my writing. Until we meet again in my next writing.
