Just got my second HPV vax and my understanding is I have to wait at least a month before I can have a different vaccine.

That said, I intend to get the Covid and Flu vax once its been a full month. They've never told me I can't do both of those at the same time.

    I've gotten Covid and Flu vax at the same time. I prefer it, I usually get a fever and my arm gets really sore. One time I tried one in each arm, and I had two sore arms for a couple days instead of one.

    i tried asking for meningicoccal vaccine, but im not at risk so i wasnt given one, or the hpv one,. i was asked about the chickenpox vaxxine once, but i had CPOX when i was young, and shingles when i was 20. i had the vax for it, i dint know, but it appears it doesnt stop or reduce the severity of HZ.

    If you really want the vaccine, just follow the advise of your physician. They'll know or find out wheter you can combine them.

    If your a normal, healthy person there is no need to get the vaccine though. I get the flu shot every year because my employer offers it and I'm just a big wussy.
