Default Adult vaccinations updates and booster

Please do not post anti vaccine stuff. I don’t want the post derailed please. This is just for those seeking info on adult vaccines.

There is a list of recommended vaccinations for adults.

chicken pox (varicella)
diphtheria
hepatitis A
hepatitis B
HPV (human papillomavirus)
measles
meningococcal
mumps
pneumococcal
polio
rubella
shingles
tetanus
whooping cough (pertussis)

For over 69 years of age

flu
shingles
pneumococcal disease


Check to be up to date.

diphtheria
tetanus
whooping cough (pertussis)

For travelers

cholera
hepatitis A
hepatitis B

Japanese encephalitis
meningococcal
rabies
typhoid
yellow fever



I think for where I go am and now good (ones I have had recently highlighted in red) but unsure about.

diphtheria
tetanus
whooping cough (pertussis)

What have people heard about having these boosters. Any one the list that you’ve heard would be good to have?

Good public service announcement for those who are travelling and need to update their vaccines. Because of the last 2 years controversy regarding a vaccine and travel, we can just leave it as a PSA and don't need to get into the inevitable controversial and antagonistic debates. If anyone has any questions regarding vaccines they should talk to their doctor or other health care provider, and not make it a topic on AO.
