Some of Important Types of Vaccines

Tetanus Vaccine
The Tetanus vaccine provides protection from tetanus infection, which is acquired from soil or rusted iron.
Pneumococcal vaccine

Importance of vaccination
In developing, country infections are a very important cause of illness and mortality in children
1. Vaccines help your child develop immunity against microbes that commonly cause infections in childhood without actually getting infected.
2. Vaccination helps prevent or reduce the illness’s intensity when the child acquires the infection that they have been vaccinated against.
3. It protects the growth of the child, which can be slowed or retarded by repeated infections from viruses and bacteria in the growing years. Frequent pneumonia in children can push the child to the verge of malnutrition. Malnutrition in children can cause trap children in the cycle of illness and poor nutrition. This can affect their performance in school and add additional expenses to the family.
4. It prevents serious complications from vaccine-preventable diseases such as paralysis due to polio, dehydration due to rotaviral diarrhoea etc.
5. Vaccinating children against viruses like polio can give rise to herd immunity. It is a term used to indicate a major chunk of the community is protected against a particular disease. This is the rationale behind a programme like pulse polio immunization.
6. Vaccination is a cheap, easy and safe way to promote health in the community. It allows paying attention and resources to more pressing community demands such as nutrition, education and non-infectious diseases.
7. In immune-compromised individuals, vaccines can prevent the progression of a short illness to a life-threatening disease by activating the immune system.
