      Hello,

      No, it would not become weaker, it becomes smarter. A vaccine isn’t a free ride, your body is still learning to deal with the antigens involved in disease recognition and therefore the vaccine is teaching your body to do something (protect itself and survive) but it is still making the immune system work. Give a man a fish, he eats for a day. Teach him how to fish he can provide for himself sort of deal.
