Summary Introduction
To compare:
The Jenner’s vaccination procedure and Chinese practice of variolation, and also provide the contrasting characters.
Introduction:
Any individual can induce immunity towards a disease (infectious) by 2 artificial methods: passive and active immunization. Active immunization includes administering antigens to a person so that he mounts an adaptive response, whereas passive immunization gives a temporary immunity.

Explain the steps involved in toxoid vaccine production with the help of an example.
Why was variolation abolished in favor of vaccination?
Variolation had high infectious (10%) and death rates (up to 3%). Vaccination was much safer and
people did not get smallpox from it.
Variolation had high infectious (50%) and death rates (up to 3%). Vaccination was much safer and
people did not get smallpox from it.
Preparing the material for variolation was an incredibly difficult process.
Variolation had high infectious (10%) and death rates (up to 30%). Vaccination was much safer and
people did not get smallpox from it.
In a paragraph, state an argument if healthcare workers should have mandatory vaccination or lose their job.
