Vaccinations

Vaccination and Immunization have a related meaning in everyday language. This is distinct from inoculation, which uses unsweetened live pathogens. Vaccination efforts came to be met with some reluctance on scientific, ethical, political, medical safety, and religious grounds, although no major religions oppose vaccination, and some consider it an obligation due to the potential to save lives. People may get compensation for alleged injuries under the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program. Advance success brought widespread acceptance, and mass vaccination campaigns have greatly reduced the incidence of many diseases in numerous geographic regions. The centres for disease control and prevention list vaccination as one of the ten good public health achievements.
