Anyone know how often you're supposed to get a pneumonia shot? I had one a while back.

Yes. I did some digging and people after 50 need only one jab. I guess I'm good and don't need another one. It's NOT an mNRA so I'm fine with it.

Short answer is it depends on your medical history and vax history.  The main factors are how old you are and if you've ever had a pneumonia vax before.  But I'd highly recommend asking your doctor about it....they'll be able to sort through all this bullcrap quickly:

Not bullcrap in that it's wrong....bullcrap in the sense that it's a more difficult question than most people would like it to be.  But like most things, healthcare guidelines are not a one-size-fits-all.

Wife says this is incorrect.  If you read the info at the link I gave, you can see the current recommendations are clear as mud.  Again, can't stress enough, talk to your doctor about it. 

OR, if you know your pharmacist--or sometimes pharmacists are just easier to get to and talk to--they are actually a great resource who can help with this stuff.  They know what they're talking about here. 

ETA:  I think what she meant was, it could be correct, but not necessarily.

Got the P shot at 50. Should get another one at 60, so a few years. I will confirm this with my doctor too.

Badger,

Your post on vaccines prompted me to make an appointment for my Shingrix booster, that is 2-years past due. I am probably due for other vaccines, but I will only do one at a time, as it is the only way to determine which ones cause issues.

Thanks for the shirt. It was delivered this week.

You're welcome. I hope you like it.

As for shingles, I've never gotten that shot. Never had chickenpox, which is hard to believe, because it seems like I catch anything and everything.

Fighting fevers hard, but we both just retested for COVID and again negative, so it's probably flu.

Guess I shouldn't have slacked on getting that flu shot this year.

Which makes some sense... My two other kids had flu shots and they've (as far as I know since yesterday morning) have been just fine.
I have been getting the flu vaccine every year probably for more than 20-years, and I cannot recall when I last had the flu ... it has been a long time.  
Before flu shots were covered by health insurance I would buy flu shots for my secretary, too, in hopes it would help with attendance and overall health.
About 17-years ago I bought a flu vaccine for a secretary. She didn't get sick, but stayed home from work several days to take care of the 4-kids at home who caught the flu.

Do you know what effect it has on your immunity or resistance to shingles that you didn't get chickenpox? Can you still get chickenpox?
