DEFENSE MECHANISMS
Herd immunity: Protection due to the immunity of most
community members making exposure unlikely
Natural immunity: Natural defense mechanisms of the
body to resist specific antigens or toxins
Acquired immunity: Develops through actual exposure to
the infectious agent
● Active: Production of antibodies by the body in response
to infection or immunization with a specific antigen
● Passive: Transfer of antibodies to the host either transplacentally from mother to
newborn, or through
transfusions of immunoglobulins, plasma proteins,
or antitoxins

● The community health nurse engages in communicable
disease surveillance, which includes the systematic
collection and analysis of data regarding
infectious diseases.
● Descriptive epidemiology is used to investigate disease
patterns to identify whom it affected, where the issue
is located, how it occurs, why or what the cause is, and
when the condition started.
● Information gained from monitoring disease patterns
can help identify an unusual disease outbreak or newly
emerging disease (public health assessment). The data is
also useful in developing public health policies regarding disease management, and
to evaluate efficiency of
