The doctor told me I'd never need another one. 20 years later I was told they had a better vaccine and I should get it. Now I think they give it to me every other year.

I had pneumonia 3 times before I got the shots, the first time when I was 4 or 5. I haven't had pneumonia since the first shot. I recommend it.
