Reactions from either the RSV vaccine or pneumonia vaccine

[Frwinkley]

I’ll be getting both of these for the first time [RSV is once per lifetime). My goal is to protect myself obviously, but also my young grandbabies.

I’ll be getting flu and covid shots, but I know what to expect from those.

 

[White Cat]

None

Also no reaction to either.

No reaction to the Pneumonia shot, or any other shots. I guess I'm lucky cause it sure seems some folks suffer some reactions.

No reaction to Pneumonia but I would ask your Dr which one is best for you. There are a few on the market and I think some carry more varieties of pneumonia than others I was told to do Pneumovax 23 as it is recommended for older adults and those with compromised immune systems because it covers 23 kinds and the other ones cover fewer.

No reactions to either. I had prevnar 20 a few years ago on my dr's advice.

I don't generally have much of a reaction, sore arm for a few days with some vaccines (recent moderna covid vax, moderately sore, and years ago shingles made me really sore)

Due to foreign travel I also recently had Hep A and B, typhoid, and a DTP shot without issue

The only one I get a reaction from is covid but like a day. To me it is just not getting sick, the issue is avoid getting sick at the wrong time. Like christmas or on vacation. Well worth it
