Pneumonia

Available at Tamar, Saltash and Whites Pharmacies.

Pneumococcal vaccination service

Our pneumococcal vaccination service is recommended for patients over 2 years and older who would like to prevent invasive pneumonia and associated complications (such as acute otitis media, meningitis and sepsis). 

  • This service is designed for adults aged 65 and over, as well as those with chronic illnesses or weakened immune systems.

  • The NHS offers the pneumococcal vaccine to people aged 65 and above. You can find full details about who qualifies on the NHS website.

  • You’ll receive a quick injection after a brief health check. The appointment usually takes around 15–20 minutes, including a short observation period.

  • The pneumococcal vaccine is offered as a private service at £100.
