I know everyone is different but generally, is it like a flu vaccine in how some side effects are?

People with long-term health conditions: May need a single shot or a shot every five years, depending on their condition.

My immunologist had me take the new pneumovax double shot in July. I just got the RSV last Friday and had no repercussions. The immunologist advised me, strongly advised me to take the Covid and Flu vaccines in October. Being a good soldier, I will follow orders. :)

Hi Kathryn. I’m not convinced on the RSV shots. I had five shots for covid. Now they want us to have more. I did have the flu vaccination. I do have COPD & my respiratory is not the best. Short of breath & wheezing. But I’m still prepared to to go without the vaccinations.
