I’m not even sick! We give kids shots to protect them. Protect them? How? Blood carries tiny cells to all parts of your body. There are fat, round, red cells. There are white cells, too. The white cells have a special job. They fight germs and kill them. White cells keep you well. When germs get in, your white blood cells go to work. But some germs are too strong for an unprepared body. When a doctor gives you a shot, or immunization, this helps your white cells prepare for certain kinds of germs. Columbia Veterinary Hospital To understand that, you need to know a little more about how your body works. 112 Garibaldi Ave Garibaldi, Ore.

Astoria, Warrenton & Seaside 1100 Northwest Ridge Road Hammond, OR 97121 reservations 800-562-8506 info 503-861-2606 Germs can get into your body in many ways. They can enter through your mouth or through your nose or even through a cut in your skin. Shots are like a fire drill. A fire drill gets you ready in case of a real fire. A shot gets you ready in case of a real attack by germs. Standards Link: Health: Students understand ways to prevent disease. Northwest West Inc. Northwest West Inc. Northwest West Inc.

Paste the articles in the outline where you found the body part mentioned. When the doctor gives you a shot with a small amount of weak whooping cough germs, certain white cells in your body start making a germ-killing chemical called an “antibody.” Each antibody kills only one kind of germ. When an antibody and a germ match up, the antibody kills the germ. 503-325-8221 Emerald Heights A PA R T M E N T S NORTHWEST READY MIX Standards Link: Health: Students identify body parts and describe their functions. 950 Olney Ave • Astoria 503-325-3562 Standards Link: Health: Students understand ways they can maintain their own health. 1410 COMMERCIAL STREET ASTORIA 503-325-5511 When you take polio vaccine drops, killer white cells in your body find the polio germs and kill them.
