It’s a vaccine for pneumococcal pneumonia caused by streptococcus pneumoniae. Usually given to adults over 65 years of age and other susceptible people. With that being said, there are multiple other types of pneumonia that are not covered by vaccines.

Well there you go.
Nobody was talking about "bacterial" pneumonia in the first place, you brazen geek. "Pneumonia vaccine" was brought up to deflect about vax against covid, which also causes pneumonia.
A geek never wins, remember that.

Huh - didn't know there was a vaccine for pneumonia. The more you know...
It's not typically given to healthy young people. So if you don't have risk factors and are below a certain age, doctors are not going to recommend it. Conversely, over a certain age, most doctors will recommend getting one.
True. And like 99% of doctors. Same number that recommend tylenol for headache.

Yea, possibly the Covid vax, which is not a vax.
These forums are one of the stupidest corners of the internet. I don't know why I keep coming back to this site; today, I am making a firm resolution that this was my last visit.

Never heard of a vac for pneumonia which many times is a result of some other affliction like toxic black mold poisoning

Sadly happens to a lot of elderly folks that go to the hospital for something else but die of pneumonia. Sucks.

You sound like one of those "science" guys that used to cry foul when somebody who had covid died of pneumonia..... and they listed it as a covid death.

There are two types;

SeeYou didn’t read the study, right? If you’re going to reach a conclusion from a study, then at least look at who the patients are. To compare outcomes between 2 groups, they have to be matched.
The people who were vaccinated had WAY more chronic diseases;Here’s what Table 1 shows comparing the vaccinated (V) Group to unvaxed (UV)
- Chronic lung disease: V- 31%, UV 10%
- Chronic heart disease: V-26%, UV 12%
- Diabetes: 28% vs 16- Chronic liver disease: 7% vs 2%
The vaxxed patients in this study were just much sicker. You can’t judge how effective a vaccine is with comparison groups that are that mismatched.
