[QUOTE="dmac1, post: 4993231, member: 60252"] Likely because the earlier definitions weren't precise. A vaccination fight off an infection- it doesn't set up a force field that prevents the virus from entering your body, and smart people knew that. There are MANY vaccines that have NEVER offered any lifetime of immunity that some people are now arguing should occir. Almost all the childhood vaccinations take multiple boosters over time, and people get repeated tetanus vaccines throughout life because that 'immunity' doesn't last long. NO ONE with a brain has ever believed that lifetime immunity is guaranteed from any vaccine. Some vaccines apparently do offer lifetime immunity from getting the diease, so offer only limited reduction in symptoms. And vaccines have never directly produced the immunity- it has always been the bodies response that creates the immunity. But the vaccine is the prime mover. If you want to read something sinister into a more precise definition have fun. But , in a way christians might understand, you can say that god created everything man made in the world, because 'god' created man. So in that sense, vaccines 'create' immunity, but it is actually the bodies reaction to the vaccine that finally results in the immune response to the virus, or bacteria. Only crybabies worry about having a slightly more precise definition. [/QUOTE]
