Impfstoffe und Immunisierung
Vaccines and immunisations can help protect the body against infections. They 'prime' the immune system to recognise micro-organisms such as bacteria and viruses. The UK's Impfprogramm für Kinder includes Masern, Mumps und Röteln (MMR) Impfstoff. Influenza (Grippe) Impfstoff, Pneumokokken-Impfstoff und Impfstoff gegen das humane Papillomavirus (HPV). There are also many 'Reiseimpfungen' for diseases such as Typhus, Gelbfieber und Japanische Enzephalitis.
