A vaccination is when a person is introduced to the whole or subunits of the disease itself, either in it's dead, weakened, or genetically altered state. Vaccines can also be the toxins that the disease produces.
An immunization is a pre-made antibody that your body is supplied with.
"a "vaccine" is the thing you get vaccinated WITH..
a "vaccination" is the process of being vaccinated."
WRONG the real answer is that vaccinations are naturally weakened form of the virus, this was made by edward Jenner and was named vaccination for some stupid latin reason. The vaccine however ( made by Louis pasteur) is an Artificially weakened form of a virus and Louis pasteur named it in honor of edward Jenner's vaccination.
If you're immune to something, your system is resistant to it. However, if you're vaccinated, you're not immediately immune, and in fact, it may not help you at all. When you're vaccinated, you're simply given a shot. I believe most shots take a while to take effect. Some don't take effect at all.
