The actual problem with vaccines
- Subunit vaccines like hepatitis B or influenza use a specific protein or carbohydrate from the pathogen that will still trigger an immune response.

What Happens to Your Body RIGHT AFTER You Get an Infection?
- such as an increase in body temperature to inactivate the pathogen and the production of antibodies by the white blood cells, which attach to the harmful microbes and kill them.
