NOTE 1: In cases of prophylactics, it may be understood that higher the potency, the longer the immunity. It is said that 10000 potency will give an immunity of about 8 years, 1000 would give about 2-1/2 years protection and 30 would give protection for a few months only.

NOTE 2: When a vaccine is introduced in the body, the immune system reacts in the same way as if invaded by some disease by producing antibodies. These antibodies stay in the body to give it immunity against that disease.
