Vaccination is the insertion of a dead or disabled (weakened) version of a virus or bacteria into your body. This allows your T-lymphocytes to recognise the disease, if you ever encounter it, and decrease the symptomatology.

Answer:

Vaccines train your immune system to recognize and fight specific disease-causing organisms known as pathogens, which include viruses and bacteria. They then leave behind memory cells that can instigate a defense should the pathogen return.

By tailoring the body's own immune defenses, vaccines provide protection against many infectious diseases, either by blocking them entirely or reducing the severity of their symptoms.
