How do vaccines work with your child’s immune system to fight infections?
Join baby Jack and his #parents as they find out how #vaccines help train your baby’s immune system to help prevent disease in this #HowVaccinesWork video.
Vaccines help your baby fight infections by introducing antigens (parts of germs) into their body. These parts of germs activate the immune system and are weakened or dead and cannot cause illness.
Learn more about #childhood immunizations by visiting https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/parents/childhood-vaccines/ or talk with your child’s doctor.
