One injection can give years of protection against pneumococcal infection
The pneumococcal vaccine protects against Streptococcus pneumoniae, a bacteria that can cause pneumonia and other serious infections. It's given as a single injection into the upper arm, and most adults only need the one dose — though some higher-risk individuals may be advised to have a second. Protection can last for many years.
