Thanks for all the replies so far. But now I am confused. I always here about Pnuemonia shots every year around the same time people (news, health organizations) start talking about flu shots. Is the pnuemonia shot one you get every year? Is it the same as the one some of you are talking about that you get every 5 years? I will be asking the nurse/doctor about this tomorrow. Thanks again!

The flu shot is every year. The pneumonia shot is good for 5 years before needing another. You probably hear about it on the news for the people who have never had one OR are overdue for one.
