Vaccinations: is the administration of a vaccine to help the immune system develop protection from a disease. Vaccines contain a microorganism in a weakened or killed state, or proteins or toxins from the organism. In stimulating the body's adaptive immunity, it helps prevent sickness from an infectious disease.
Vaccibody has developed a unique platform technology able to substantially potentiate vaccines by an inherent mechanism that attract, activate and deliver antigens to antigen presenting cells...
