The method of passive immunization is used to combat active infections of tetanus, infectious hepatitis, rabies, snake bite venom, etc. Passive immunization is the transfer of antibodies from one person or animal to another, providing immediate but temporary protection against a specific disease. Unlike active immunization, it does not require the recipient's own immune system to create antibodies. This can happen naturally, such as when a newborn receives antibodies from its mother.
