Beyond the “Pneumonia Shot”: Explaining the Full Benefits of Pneumococcal Vaccines to Patients

Just as pneumonia isn’t “just a cold,” the pneumococcal vaccine does much more than just protect yourself or your child against pneumonia. Listen in and learn from experts Robert H. Hopkins, Jr., MD, and Brenda L. Tesini, MD, how to discuss the full benefits of pneumococcal vaccine.

Topics covered include:

  • Burden of pneumococcal disease among pediatric and older adult populations in the United States
  • Risk factors for severe pneumococcal disease
  • Which pneumococcal vaccines to use for certain populations and why
  • How pneumococcal vaccination protects from long-term sequelae and potential community benefits of vaccination
