Immunization provides specific immunity by introducing antigens from pathogens into the body, which stimulates the adaptive immune system to produce specific antibodies and memory cells tailored to those antigens. This memory allows for a rapid and robust response upon future exposure to the same pathogen. Additionally, the process can also enhance non-specific immunity by activating innate immune responses, such as the production of cytokines and the recruitment of immune cells, which provide a broader defense against various pathogens. Thus, immunization fortifies both arms of the immune system.
