The immune system is a group of cells & soluble molecules, which interact & distinguish patterns in the body as “self” or “non-self,” in order to eliminate those that are “non-self.”. Dr. .

Recognize . and clear damaged self components. Principles . of Vaccination. : . Vaccination is one of the most effective medical interventions to reduce morbidity and mortality of infectious diseases. The main principle of vaccination is the proactive induction of a protective immune response by mimicking the natural interaction of an infectious pathogen (bacteria, viruses, etc.) with the human immune system (Fig 1).
