|
Students should be able to explain how vaccination will prevent illness in an individual, and how the spread of pathogens can be reduced by immunising a large proportion of the population. |
|
How do vaccinations prevent illness in an individual and the spread of disease in a population? |
|
|
|
Evaluate the global use of vaccination in the prevention of disease. |
|
What are the advantages and disadvantages of using vaccinations to prevent disease? |
|
|
|
Vaccination involves introducing small quantities of dead or inactive
forms of a pathogen into the body to stimulate the white blood cells to produce antibodies. |
|
What is in a vaccine? |
|
|
|
If the same pathogen re-enters the body the white blood cells respond quickly to produce the correct antibodies, preventing infection. |
|
How does a vaccination work? Plan a story board using a flow map of the stages of how vaccinations work. Make a stop time animation of the process. (free app Stop Motion Studio) |
|
|
|
Students do not need to know details of vaccination schedules and side effects associated with specific vaccines. |
|
EW: Explain how a vaccine works.
EW: Explain why there is a sharp increase the in the number of white blood cells after a vaccination is given. |
