Streptococcus pneumonia bacteria causes pneumonia, blood infection, and meningitis. Symptoms include fever, chills, shaking, chest pain, productive or phlegmy cough with rusty colored sputum, shortness of breath, weakness, poor oxygenation, headache, vomiting, and rapid breathing (tachypnea). Infections can lead to serious complications such as infections of the lung surroundings, inflammation of the covering of the heart muscle, breathing obstruction, fluid in the lungs, and abscess formation in the lungs.

Approximately 175,000 individuals are hospitalized in the United States annually with pneumococcal infection among which 5-7% will die from the disease. Groups that are at greatest risk for developing pneumococcal disease include individuals over 65 years of age, individuals with certain health issues and weakened immune systems, very young infants, and people who smoke. Since the vaccine’s release, incidence of invasive pneumococcal disease has been reduced greatly.

It is recommended that people who are at greater risk for becoming infected with Streptococcus pneumonia bacteria such as people over the age of 65 receive the vaccine. Other individuals who should receive pneumococcal vaccine include:

  • Individuals between 2 and 64 years of age with certain health conditions including immunosuppression.
  • Individuals with alcoholism.
  • Individuals between 19 and 64 years old who have asthma or who smoke.
  • Individuals who are taking medications that can interfere with the immune system.

I recently visited this clinic for the services and shots required for my immigration case, and I must say, the experience was exceptional. From the moment I checked in to the time I left, everyone I interacted with was incredibly nice, courteous, and professional. The staff was well-informed and had all the necessary information readily available to assist me. They were patient, thorough, and made sure I understood everything I needed to know. This was such a positive experience compared to other clinics I've visited. If other healthcare providers were even half as friendly and knowledgeable as the team here, I would definitely be more inclined to visit them more often. I highly recommend this clinic to anyone in need of medical services, especially for immigration-related requirements. Thank you for making the process so smooth and stress-free!
