For asthmatics, the pneumonia vaccine is highly recommended.
According to CDC recommendations regarding the pneumonia vaccine:
- Children younger than 2 years old.
- Adults between 19 and 64 years old with asthma.
- All adults 65 years of age or older.
Therefore, if you are an adult between the ages of 19 and 64 and have asthma, getting the pneumonia vaccine is considered best practice.
