What are intravenous vaccines?

In: Vaccinations, Immune System, Veins [Edit categories]

Answer:

If there were any, they would be vaccines that are administered directly into a vein (intravenous means within the vein) using a needle. But there are no vaccines made for that administration route that I am aware of. Most are either intramuscular (IM, within the muscle), oral, intradermal (within the skin), or intranasal (mists inserted into the nose).
