May be better to have different types of passive immunity as separate pages. Snowman 11:08, 20 April 2006 (UTC)thanks 4 da help
I think it might make more sense to combine these two articles into one "immunity" page since they discuss the same general concepts.-- DO11.10 20:31, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
...in addition to other problems. But I could be wrong. So I am moving it here until it can be sourced by the author.
Heritagely acquired passive immunity The Sami people(native people of Finland, Norway and Sweden) have an immunity to mosquitos, that they have herited from their forefathers. The immunity has made the blood smell an odor that the mosquitos dont like. -- DO11.10 17:53, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
If you donate blood are you more vulnerable to getting the flu? If you have recieved the flu vaccine before you have donated blood are you still as resistant to the flu? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Smith152 ( talk • contribs) 02:18, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
"Adoptive transfer" should read "adaptive transfer"?
The subsection "Passive transfer of cell-mediated immunity" begins as follows:"Passive or "adoptive transfer" of cell-mediated immunity, is conferred by the transfer of "sensitized" or activated T-cells from one individual into another."
"Adoptive transfer" should read "adaptive transfer"? --

At the third category of vaccines, in the last section "Artificially acquired active immunity", it is described that:
Would it be that the last phrase reads "used prior to an encounter with the toxin of the organism"? -- Tossh eng ( talk) 07:42, 4 September 2008 (UTC)
The last but one paragraph of the section "History of theories of immunity" begins with as follows:
Then did Mithridates VI make active immunization by incorporating poisons? -- Tossh eng ( talk) 08:51, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
To take orally the blood of the animals which fed on venomous snakes was done to develop a similar resistance to the animals against the venome. The idea was similar to the reason to take orally other toxins. He just wanted to develop immunity to the toxins. This was aimed at developing active immunity. The immunoglobulin against the venome was of his own. He might have not approached the modern passive immunotherapy, that is, to transfer the immunoglobulin which had specific binding property to the toxin and neutralizing it into the blood himself. This immunoglobulin was of the animal's own. The reason that he also recommended taking orally the blood of animals which fed on poisonous plants might have been similar to the reason above for the snake venome.-- Tossh_eng ( talk) 12:51, 30 November 2008 (UTC)
The pertaining part of the original French text of J. Maleissye's book at page 165 [1] is as follows:
Dictionary.com translator robot exhaled the following English:
Though it is so much imperfect as English, Mithridates might not think any detoxifying property of the venom in the animal's blood feeding on the snake and he might not think the property was transferred to him by drinking the blood.-- Tossh_eng ( talk) 14:57, 11 December 2008 (UTC)
I have tagged the above article for merge here, although it reads like an essay and I don't know if anything in it is worth rescuing. I trust you editors here will know how to deal with it. I found it in the backlog of articles to be wikified since September 2007. Itsmejudith ( talk) 22:55, 3 March 2009 (UTC)
from early in the article: "Naturally acquired immunity occurs through contact with a disease causing agent, when the contact was not deliberate, whereas artificially acquired immunity develops only through deliberate actions such as vaccination." However, later on it is stated that maternal immunity "refers to antibody-mediated immunity conveyed to a fetus by its mother during pregnancy. Maternal antibodies (MatAb) are passed through the placenta to the fetus by an FcRn receptor on placental cells." If natural immunity requires "contact with a disease causing agent", and maternal immunity comes when "Maternal antibodies are passed through the placenta to the fetus", then why is maternal immunity listed as "Naturally acquired passive immunity" when it does not fit the definition as stated in this article? -- 98.70.129.246 ( talk) 14:53, 28 January 2010 (UTC)

Someone more knowledgeable than I should update the article to mention the use of mRNA vaccines. As it stands, a naive reader could decide that such vaccines are not real vaccines, as they are not mentioned at all. I have interacted with people online who claimed that the mRNA vaccines are not vaccines, and one cited an old page on the cdc.gov web site, which oversimplified vaccines to say that they must contain live virus. I'd be concerned that this article might be used for the same sort of misinformation.
