That's correct! Antibodies are created in response to vaccines. When a vaccine is given, it introduces a harmless piece of the pathogen (such as a protein or dead/inactivated virus) into the body. This helps the immune system recognize the pathogen and mount a defense against it. In response, the immune system produces specific antibodies that neutralize or destroy the pathogen. These antibodies remain in the body, ready to quickly combat the actual pathogen if the person is exposed to it in the future. So, by getting vaccinated, you are essentially training your immune system to create the appropriate antibodies to fight off specific diseases.
