Hi Doctor… Does the Qdenga dengue vaccine provide me lifetime immunity, or will i have to get booster shots later down the line?

Good morning!
Thank you so much for your question.
As the vaccine is relatively new, the duration of protection provided by Qdenga is still being studied. Like many vaccines, booster doses may be required to maintain immunity over time. What is confirmed is the high efficacy rating of Qdenga compared to other dengue vaccinations.
Therefore, it is recommended to receive the Qdenga vaccination now to protect yourself against dengue, then any booster shot that may be required in the future.
If you have any additional questions about Qdenga, dengue, or any other worries you might have, consult a healthcare professional to seek further information.
