Immunity

Innate immunity is the defense against infection that every human being is born with. When a baby is born, it has in itself certain amount of immunity towards some of the germs. This immunity is nurtured by mother's milk. Another type of immunity is the adaptive immunity which the baby acquires as it exposed to disease causing agents. This type of immunity is a response to specific bacteria, virus or fungi. It's better to be immunized to diseases, because prevention saves you time and strain! It is even ironic that there are diseases which give self-immunity. The best example is Chicken Pox. Once infected, the disease leaves antigens in your body and they act as a vaccination against the disease. So, one's chance of acquiring Chicken Pox for the second time is very very scarce! Research is also done in the field of Vaccine development. The antigens that are developed in our body in response to the disease causing germs are useful in the development of vaccine to the disease. For example, the antibodies developed in our body in response to the chicken pox virus, can be extracted from the body and can be made to multiply and are marketed as vaccines. This method was developed by Edward Jenner and that was how he discovered vaccination for Small Pox. Now Small Pox has officially been extruded from this world.
