Vaccines on a scientific ground are immunogenic (immune provoker) of attenuated or dead pathogenic cells injected in order to stimulate the production of antibodies (body soldier) against presence of any antigen (foreign pathogens). In contrast, social media perform a role akin to vaccine. Social media is a medium where information about a disease or health issue can be publicize, this eventually get individual aware of the nature, virulence and preventive measures of the disease. This was evident in Nigeria in 2014 when there was an outbreak of Ebola virus disease. Ebola disease is a contagious disease that tends to wipe out a large community in a limited number of days, if proper action is not taken. The Ebola virus was introduced to Nigeria on 20th July, 2014 when an infected Liberia man arrived at Lagos, Africa's most populous city, by aeroplane.

Due to arduous government consignment, detailed information about the alienated menace reach out to the populace in mean time. Even a toddler at that time can defined what an ebola is, as a dreadful disease. From a commendation to glorify Nigeria by World Health Organization, it wrote " Strong public awareness campaigns, teamed with early engagement of traditional, religious and community leaders, also played a key role in successful containment of this outbreak. Within 42 days reign of Ebola, the disease was evanescent from Nigeria and it case closed. That is what I'm saying about using media as vaccine to disinfect our society.
