What Are the Advantages and Disadvantages of These Vaccines?
Each type of vaccine has its own set of advantages and disadvantages. Subunit and recombinant vaccines are generally safer as they contain only parts of the pathogen. However, they might require adjuvants to enhance immune response. Polysaccharide vaccines are effective in inducing immunity but are less effective in young children. Conjugate vaccines overcome this limitation and provide robust immunity even in infants.
