Good to hear the vaccination went well, bear in mind that bacterial pneumonia is just one form... we still need to be a bit cautious to try avoid other types, like viral pneumonia and fungal pneumonia.

Be certain to maintain you Pneumovax 23 vaccinations as well, every 5 years, and annual flu shots etc.
