the polio vaccine is created by denaturing the viral dna with radiation. the outer protein coat is used to develop a vaccine. this shell contains recognizable antigens on its surface that generates an immune response but does not cause disease.
Herd immunity occurs when a large enough proportion of a population is vaccinated (immune) to make the spread of an infectious disease unlikely. In such a situation, even unvaccinated individuals are less likely to contract the disease because there is less overall transmission in the community. Transformation is a genetic process in bacteria. Cohort defense is not a standard term in immunology related to this concept. Inoculation protection is a more general term but not the specific concept described here.
