The pneumonia vaccine schedule depends on the type of vaccine you receive. For the pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13), it is recommended for adults aged 65 years or older to receive a single dose. For the pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PPSV23), adults aged 65 or older may need a single dose, with a potential second dose if it has been more than 5 years since the first dose.

Why don't people over 65 need another pneumonia shot?
After the age of 65, people are typically considered to have received adequate protection from the pneumonia vaccine. This is because the immune response to the vaccine is strong enough to provide long-lasting immunity in most individuals. However, certain medical conditions or situations may still warrant a recommendation for a second dose of the pneumonia vaccine in some individuals over 65.
How many seconds is a vaccine?
A vaccine is a medicine for immunity and does not have "seconds". If you mean how many seconds does it take for the vaccine to be administered, then the injection of a vaccine usually only takes 5-10 seconds to put the vaccine into your body with a needle since the amount of vaccine needed is so small. If the vaccine is available in a nasal mist, the inhalation of a nasal mist takes as long as it takes for you to sniff. If you mean how long will the immunity last before you need a booster vaccination, you should check with your doctor about the type of vaccine you are getting (e.g. influenza, bacterial pneumonia, etc.). Depending on your age and the type of vaccine, some vaccinations need boosters every so often. Your doctor can tell you how long the one you are getting lasts.
