Hep B 3 shots
Rotavirus 2 or 3 shots
Diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis 5 shots with Td every 5-10 years, Tdap at least once and with every pregnancy
Hib 3-4 shots
Pneumococcal 4 shots
Polio 4 shots
Flu annually
MMR 2 shots
Varicella 2 shots
Hep A 2 shots
Meningococcal 2 shots
HPV 2-3 shots
Even though I called them shots they’re all vaccines.
But I'm talking about if the covid vaccine becomes a yearly thing like the flu shot, not the amount of doses it takes to be counted as one vaccine. Why does it even matter? If covid vaccines become a yearly thing, my opinion is that people will not really view it as a vaccine whether it is or not. It will be viewed as a yearly covid shot, and a lot like the flu shot.
