It worked well for the last year, and kept us both flu-free. Yay.
I was vaccinated for Pneumonia last year - 2018. It needs to be repeated every five years. I had the PCV13. So, the next one should be in 2023.
What Types of Pneumococcal Vaccines Are There?
- Pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13 or Prevnar 13®)
- Pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PPSV23 or Pneumovax23®)
From my reading, PH patients should get both the vaccines. They should be given one year apart.
