Vaccine Killed

A killed vaccine is a special type of vaccine that is used to fight certain diseases. It is created from weakened or killed bacteria or viruses that are dangerous to humans, but cannot cause disease if they are inside the body. Such vaccines get their name “killed” due to the fact that during their manufacture, bacteria or viruses are killed by special methods. Killed vaccines may contain live bacterial or viral cells that have been specially treated to reduce their pathogenicity. Next, we will look at how the killed vaccine works and in what cases it is used.

Killed injection vaccine is one of the ways to produce vaccines. Such vaccines are often used to protect against tetanus, diphtheria, whooping cough, hepatitis B, polio and other diseases. The vaccination technique is based on creating a special environment in which dangerous microorganisms are killed before injection. After this procedure, the patient receives an immunogenic substance that provides protection against a specific disease.
