Prevnar is recommended as posted in post #15. Some insurers will not cover it , but that is changing, so check with your insurance co. And , as usual, the vaccine is expensive. Our cost, ordering hundreds at a time is $158.76/shot. Chain pharmacies ordering tens of thousands may get a better deal from the vaccine manufacturer, but you can use our cost as a guideline----if you see a pharmacy charging $230 and above, you are getting ripped off---about $190 should be the max
