Routine Care & WellnessImmunizations for an adult womanWhile it is very common for children to have routine immunizations – or shots – it’s important to know that adults need them, too, to prevent serious diseases. You should get a tetanus-diphtheria shot every ten years. At age 65 you should get a pneumococcal ("pneumonia") shot and begin having influenza ("flu") shots every year. If you’re not sure when your last shots were, check with your health care provider.
