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. It is important to consult with a healthcare provider to determine the appropriate vaccination schedule based on individual health factors.
My doctor told me to get the pneumonia vaccine shot every 5 years.

There's really no such thing as a pneumonia shot. Flu shot - maybe? Any type of vaccine or medicine could have side effects so it's worth mentioning to your health care provider if they persist.
Pneumonia often kills babies and the elderly. I had pneumonia last winter. Pneumonia made me cough and I couldn't breathe well.
