Noora (vaccine)

Noora is a vaccine used in the prevention of various infectious diseases. It is a biological preparation that provides active acquired immunity to a particular infectious disease. A vaccine typically contains an agent that resembles a disease-causing microorganism and is often made from weakened or killed forms of the microbe, its toxins, or one of its surface proteins.

Composition

The composition of the Noora vaccine varies depending on the disease it is designed to protect against. It may contain inactivated or attenuated forms of the pathogen, or purified components of the pathogen such as its proteins or sugars. Some vaccines may also contain adjuvants, substances that enhance the body's immune response to the vaccine.

Mechanism of Action

The Noora vaccine works by stimulating the body's immune system to recognize and fight off the pathogens it is designed to target. It does this by presenting the immune system with an antigen, a molecule from the pathogen which the immune system can recognize and remember. If the person is later exposed to the actual pathogen, their immune system is able to respond more quickly and effectively because it has already encountered the antigen.

Usage

The Noora vaccine is administered through injection, usually as part of a routine immunization schedule. The exact schedule and number of doses required depends on the specific vaccine and the disease it is designed to protect against.

Side Effects

Like all vaccines, the Noora vaccine can cause side effects, although not everyone gets them. Common side effects include pain and swelling at the injection site, fever, and mild rash. Serious side effects are rare but can include severe allergic reactions.
