pneumonia vaccine
Shot preventing pneumonia
A pneumonia vaccine is an immunization that protects against bacterial pneumonia, particularly infections caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae.
Several types exist, targeting different strains and recommended for different age groups.
Adults over 65 should get the pneumonia vaccine.
Unlike flu shots, pneumonia vaccines aren't typically needed annually.
