A member asked:
How long after a vaccine do you need a booster shot?
12 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Boosters: Booster vaccines vary from vaccine to vaccine, and even things like where in the world you live can affect when. BEST information on vaccines is on the CDC website. Go to their site, then click on the vaccine section and then on any specific vaccine you want info on. They've even got information on vaccines that are not commonly used here in the States. You might also need a booster if traveling.
