Not that many decades ago, there was no way to protect yourself from devastating diseases such as polio, diptheria, tetanus and meningitis, or wildly contagious infections such as measles. Outcomes were tragic. Lifelong paralysis, stillbirth, neurodegenerative disease, encephalitis, even death.
Vaccines changed this landscape. As time progressed, more and more diseases became preventable by vaccination, and health outcomes greatly improved.
Vaccines contain a component or weakened form of a bacteria or viruses. The component or weakened form of bacteria or virus in the vaccine Does Not cause disease.
