i thought vaccines were attenuated antigen displaying organisms while immunisations were simple antibodies.

Edit: Its all good Russ. i think i read it wrong from the text book. So would it be right to say that immunisations include vaccines, shots of antibodies or any other treatment that provides and individual with immunity against a pathogen?

A vaccine will stimulate the production of antibodies against the attenuated pathogen given through the vaccine. This is a means which a person becomes artificially, actively immunised.
