What is the Pneumococcal Vaccine?
The pneumococcal vaccine helps protect against infections caused by Streptococcus pneumoniae (pneumococcus), a bacteria that can lead to serious illness such as:
• Pneumonia (lung infection)
• Bloodstream infections (bacteremia)
• Meningitis (infection of the brain and spinal cord)
Prevnar 20 (PCV20) protects against multiple strains of pneumococcal bacteria and is one of the most effective ways to prevent serious disease.
Who Should Get the Pneumococcal Vaccine?
• Adults age 50 and older
• Adults age 19–49 with certain chronic conditions
• Patients with diabetes, heart disease, lung disease, or weakened immune systems
• Individuals at higher risk due to smoking or other health conditions
A pharmacist or healthcare provider can determine which vaccine is appropriate based on your medical history.
Why is Pneumococcal Vaccination Important?
Pneumococcal infections can cause severe illness, especially in older adults and those with chronic health conditions. Vaccination is the most effective way to prevent serious complications, hospitalization, and long-term health issues.
