What are vaccines?
Resumen
These are substances that stimulate the immune system to generate antibodies and create memory against a specific virus or bacterium. This way, if you come into contact with them later, your immune system will remember and produce the appropriate antibodies and immune cells to eliminate the virus or bacterium.
