act of giving a vaccine
When a doctor or nurse gives a person a vaccine so that they will not get a disease.
用法パターン：
vaccination against [disease]; vaccination of [group]; to get [a/your] vaccination
よくある間違い：
Learners often confuse "vaccine" and "vaccination". "Vaccine" is the substance (the drug) that is put into your body, while "vaccination" is the act or process of giving it. Also, many learners are unsure about the preposition: we usually say "vaccination against" a disease (e.g., "vaccination against polio"), not "vaccination for" a disease in formal usage.
類義語
immunization (Very close in meaning; often used in public health and medical contexts, sometimes slightly broader and including the whole process of becoming immune.)

shot (Informal and mainly in American English; focuses on the injection itself instead of the medical procedure as a whole.)
対義語
non-vaccination (Describes the state or choice of not receiving vaccines, which is the opposite of undergoing vaccination.)
