Recommendations for Adults

For adults age 65 years and older without high-risk conditions who have already received PCV13, should they now get PCV15 or PCV20?

No. However, adults who received PCV13 should complete their recommended PPSV23 vaccination 1 year after PCV13. If PPSV23 is not available when the vaccination is due, but PCV20 is available, PCV20 may be given.
