What is the purpose of vaccination?

Vaccination strengthens the immune system of the vaccinated person by stimulating the production of antibodies. To do this, Quebec’s vaccination schedule recommends certain vaccines for pregnant women. Thus, some women may be targeted by the free program of the Quebec immunization protocol.

As a result, we know that the prevention of diseases inevitably involves educating the population and vaccinating them. Being an easy and effective way, it not only protects the vaccinated person, but also those around them while contributing to the establishment of a strong and healthy community.
