Vaccines in general are designed to do only two beneficial things:
- Teach a person’s immune system how to produce antibodies against one or more specific pathogen. Antibodies are like an immune system’s messaging system, which can be used to chemically signal to pathogens. Antibodies are reputed in medical science to be an effective way to kill pathogens because sometimes those signals can tell the pathogens to die or to leave a person alone.
- Teach a person’s immune system how to kill one or more specific pathogen. This is often done variously with pretty close to a full range of vitamins. For instance, some pathogens die more easily with vitamin A methods, others with vitamin C methods or vitamin E methods, etc., or by combination of methods.
Vaccines can be preventative of disease when developed and manufactured correctly, but do not work instantly. They are supposed to deliver a version of a virus or bacteria that is reduced in vigor: deactivated or killed. You can perhaps think of vaccines as something like a mother predator giving a small specimen of wounded prey to her offspring to teach them to hunt. The methodology is similar.
Vaccines in general cannot reduce a viral nor bacterial load in and of themselves, but they can provide an immune system with an opportunity to learn how to eliminate a virus or bacteria. Vaccines in general cannot prevent nor reduce transmission of a virus in and of themselves, but that can of course be a fortunate byproduct of an immune system systematically eliminating a virus from the body. Theoretically, vaccines in general do not provide any further benefits beyond what one gains by contracting and successfully fighting off an illness, thereby training the immune system through urgent necessity how to produce antibodies and kill the pathogen in question.
