How the vaccination against pneumococcus provides protection from further infection?
The way any vaccine works - is by infecting the patient with an extremely weak dose of the disease they're being immunised for.
The weakened virus is just strong enough to trigger the body's immune system into producing anti-bodies, without actually causing the patient to get the 'full-blown' disease.
The anti-bodies produced by the inoculation stay in the bloodstream ready to fight the 'real' disease, should the patient contract it a t a later date.

Why use a back up method on birth control patch?

Why does a vaccination provide long-lasting protection against a disease while gamma globulin provides only short-term protection?
With vaccination your body mounts an immune response to the pathogen. You learn what the pathogen looks like and make antibodies (gamma globulin) against it. You then get memory cells which can last a very long time and will let your body respond and fight off the pathogen the next time you are exposed. Gamma globulin is just an antibody that will circulate in your blood and and fight off the pathogens it was made against. You will not mount an immune response, and you will not get memory cells for long lasting protection.
